A method for providing an explosive layer possessing enhanced mechanical properties, by filling a honeycomb-shaped structure with an injected or pressed explosive material, such that the honeycomb-shaped structure is built from cells having profiles selected from the group consisting of hexagonal or other polygon shapes having three or more sides. The honeycomb-shaped structure may be made of aluminum, steel, titanium, plastic and reinforced plastic. The explosive layer is suitable for use in explosive reactive armor. |
