In this research, we proposed the armor design based on the arrangement of bionic scale structures. The ballistic test was under a 0.30" armor-piercing bullet impact. The energy absorption was calculated by measuring the velocity before and after the impact. The experimental results showed that the 8 mm alumina with 1 mm aluminum disk combination had the best impact resistant performance among all the specimens when circular armor disks was fixed at 9 mm thickness. The energy absorption, damage state, stress transmission mode, and bullet residual velocity of the armor penetrated by projectile were investigated by a finite element model using LS-DYNA, showing the rationality of the numerical simulation results.
