The US Army is partnering with industry and academia on a multiphase CTMA initiative to identify ways to eliminate the source of safety glass delamination and develop improvements in safety glass reliability without significantly increasing the weight or cost of the product. Phase V will focus on making a newly developed out-of-autoclave (OoA) manufacturing method commercially viable by demonstrating an OoA full-sized article fabrication and how it can be properly upscaled to meet a sufficient number of articles for proper field testing.
