Abstract

Creation of aviation armor became one of the glorious stages of the history of VIAM, aviation and science. In the war period, its development was of strategic importance for aviation. A special task was given to VIAM: bullet-resistant transparent glazing of aircraft should be developed within a short-time period. It was managed to solve this heavy task due to supreme effort. The laboratory for aircraft glazing established at VIAM had performed a real civil feat. A process for production of transparent armor not only for Il-2 attack aircraft, but also for Yak-1, Yak-3, Yak-9, La-5 and La-7 fighters was developed and commercialized on a tight timetable. In 1946, the related chief designers, top managers and employees of production plants were awarded with Stalin prize for development and mastering of transparent armor production technology. The laboratory for aircraft glazing established at the beginning of the war became a unique center of materials science and technologies of aviati
