Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to an armor system for a blast-resistant armored land vehicle configured to operate on a ground surface. The armor system has a body mounted on a vehicle surface and having a plurality of strike elements. The plurality of strike elements define a V, and each strike element comprises at least one tile. The at least one tile is attached to one of the vehicle surface and an adjacent tile with at least one degree of freedom. The at least one tile is configured to relocate from an initial position to a higher position relative to the ground surface.
