Sentinel armour .: NR16-224/2018E-PDF
"DRDC Valcartier and NRC worked together to solve the challenge of developing a new concept of armour without using a conventional armour design (i.e. mosaic of ceramic tiles) to increase multi-hit capability while maintaining a similar weight to commercially available add-on armour systems. Other mandatory objectives were to reduce cost and be optimized for all threat types (i.e. EFP, FSP, KE steel and tungsten core, blast, etc.) rather than for a specific threat type. No constraint was put on the thickness of the armour, in a first step, to avoid neglecting any potential armour solutions"--P. [2].
