CPS Technologies has been awarded a Phase I Small Business Innovative Research contract from the U.S. Army to develop lightweight, reconfigurable UH-60 flooring. CPS will develop a structural armor floor system for the UH-60 fleet that reduces aircraft weight while maximizing mission configuration flexibility. CPS will design and fabricate a Ballistic Armor Protection System using our proprietary HybridTech Armor Metal Matrix Composite technology. HybridTech Armor consists of ceramic tiles that are encapsulated in fiber-reinforced Aluminum. MMC and monolithic ceramic tiles yield robust ballistic and structural performance while reducing weight compared to other metallic armor systems. Phase I of this contract is for $250,000 and will be conducted over six months.
