In the Armored Protective Materials Technology published by the China Institute of Armed Forces in 2014, China's armored scientific research workers clearly pointed out that the British challenger and the US M1 series are the best protective tanks in the world. . The key reason for this is that the armor ceramic materials of the two tanks are excellent.

The first generation of composite armor was made of alumina. The main component of corundum gemstone is it (ruby and sapphire are corundum gemstones); many watches and mobile phones like to say that they use sapphire surface material, which is actually artificial transparent corundum. The "armored gemstone" material of Al2O3 has more than three times the hardness of armored steel and less than half the weight.

The second-generation ceramic armor has higher performance and has two main development directions: silicon carbide and titanium boride . The former is the lightest and the latter has the best elastic resistance; but they are extremely difficult to manufacture and have high sintering temperatures. The manufacturing method is very complicated, the process is very difficult to stabilize, and the cost is high. After a lot of effort, the United States succeeded in obtaining high-toughness titanium boride ceramic armor technology and applied it to the M1A1 tank. China's research on titanium boride ceramic armor is currently only available in the laboratory.
