It also needed to allow soldiers to quickly deploy and establish positions of relative safety – even in remote locations.  The composite material is 25% the weight of comparable steel structures and also weights significantly less than concrete, making them easily deployable in the field.   These panels successfully encapsulate the bullet, preventing harmful ricochets and providing additional safety to the warfighter.
