Convoy Deck, blast mitigation for armored vehicles, uses SKYDEX’s patented opposing hemisphere technology that absorbs energy caused by violent forces or explosions. Used today in most military armored vehicles,including the MRAP and M-ATV, SKYDEX blast mitigating flooring has been shown to reduce vehicles occupant injuries during IED attacks.
SKYDEX blast limiting technology absorbs blast waves and lessens the pressure transmitted from explosions.
