The concept of ballistic protection is a subject of great importance and is defined as representing all the capabilities of the military vehicle to withstand attacks, in order to ensure protection of the crew during the missions. The projectile-plate impact research must answer a series of questions on designer or fighter behalf, among which the most important would be whether the bullet penetrates or perforates and whether the velocity after the perforation ensures a lethal effect on the personnel. The current paper presents the numerical evaluation of the working together of aluminum layers with plastic materials in a multilayer structure with honeycomb core, on impact with a rigid projectile. Plastic materials have revolutionized many industries and they are increasingly used due to their main properties, low mass and high strength. The research included the use of plastics, the positioning within the panel and the study of the two constructive versions of the structure, with coupled and uncoupled layers. Post-processing model and interpretation of the results are offered and these could be enriched and customized for other situations, similar or less similar, implicitly, the method is provided, finding a quick answer to certain questions.
