Modular structure with ballistic protection

Abstract

A modular structure with ballistic protection that is readily transportable within conventional shipping containers.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An armored panel for a modular structure comprising:
 a non-ballistic resistant assembly including a sandwich structure; and   a ballistic resistant assembly bonded to said non-ballistic resistant assembly.   
     
     
         2 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said sandwich structure includes a foam core. 
     
     
         3 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 2 , wherein said sandwich structure includes a metallic skin on said foam core. 
     
     
         4 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 2 , wherein said sandwich structure includes a non-metallic skin on said foam core. 
     
     
         5 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said ballistic resistant assembly includes a first ballistic resistant structure and a second ballistic resistant structure. 
     
     
         6 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said first ballistic resistant structure includes woven fabrics of thermoplastic yarn and high strength glass fiber bonded with high performance epoxy. 
     
     
         7 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 6 , wherein said first ballistic resistant structure is between about 0.625 inches and about 0.755 inches thick. 
     
     
         8 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said second ballistic resistant structure includes fabrics of woven aramid yarns impregnated with thermoplastic resin applied in layers. 
     
     
         9 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 8 , wherein said second ballistic resistant structure is between about 0.25 inches to about 0.525 inches thick. 
     
     
         10 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said ballistic resistant assembly includes a said first ballistic resistant structure that includes woven fabrics of thermoplastic yarn and high strength glass fiber bonded with high performance epoxy, and a second ballistic resistant structure that includes fabrics of woven aramid yarns impregnated with thermoplastic resin applied in layers. 
     
     
         11 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 10 , wherein said first ballistic resistant structure is between about 0.625 inches and about 0.755 inches thick and said second ballistic resistant structure is between about 0.25 inches to about 0.525 inches thick. 
     
     
         12 . An armored panel for a modular structure comprising:
 a non-ballistic resistant assembly; and   a ballistic resistant assembly bonded to said non-ballistic resistant assembly, said ballistic resistant assembly includes a said first ballistic resistant structure that includes woven fabrics of thermoplastic yarn and high strength glass fiber bonded with high performance epoxy, and a second ballistic resistant structure that includes fabrics of woven aramid yarns impregnated with thermoplastic resin applied in layers.   
     
     
         13 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 12 , wherein said first ballistic resistant structure is between about 0.625 inches and about 0.755 inches thick and said second ballistic resistant structure is between about 0.25 inches to about 0.525 inches thick. 
     
     
         14 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 13 , wherein said sandwich structure includes a foam core. 
     
     
         15 . The armored panel for a modular structure as recited in  claim 14 , wherein said sandwich structure includes a metallic skin on said foam core. 
     
     
         16 . A modular structure comprising:
 a deck system having a multitude of deck unit modules; and   a rigid wall system mountable to said multitude of deck unit modules, said rigid wall system including a multiple of support columns; and   an armored panel mounted between at least two of said multiple of support columns.   
     
     
         17 . The modular structure as recited in  claim 16 , further comprising two support columns each mounted at an intersection of at least two of said multiple of deck unit modules 
     
     
         18 . The modular structure as recited in  claim 16 , wherein each of said two support column is mounted at an intersection of four deck unit modules. 
     
     
         19 . The modular structure as recited in  claim 16 , wherein each of said two support column is mounted to a respective adjustable leg assembly.
