Compound vs. composite armor

[edit]

What's the relation between compound- and the more recent composite armor? The basic principle - combining different materials with different protective qualities - is very much the same. To my understanding, which may well be faulty, the use of layered armors had been discontinued between the end of the compound armor in the 1890ies and the invention of the chobham armour - which en.WP says is an instance of composite armor - in the 1960ies. Can the compound a. still be called a predecessor of the composite a.? Could it even make sense to integrate them into one article? -- 790 (talk) 09:08, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
