A Breakthrough in Bullet-Proof Armor Technology

The U.S. navy’s Naval Research Laboratory is currently in the process of developing an invisible bullet-proof protection armor. This armor is based on a material called Spinel, which is several times stronger than bullet-proof glass and can protect soldiers in all sorts of combat enironments. Dr. Jess Sanghera, one of the researchers, says that this new material will provide better protection for the military force placed in a hostile environment. Furthermore, the material’s light weight allows to use it in aerial vehicles such as UAVs.
