The ballistic performance and dynamic behavior of XD{reg_sign} titanium diboride (TiB{sub 2}) reinforced Ti-48Al(at.%) composites were evaluated. The XD{reg_sign} composites exhibited ballistic performance comparable to that of an alumina ceramic. Unlike a ceramic, the composite targets were neither shattered nor pulverized. Both high strain rate testing and ballistic testing showed material behaviors independent of reinforcement loading. In this paper, the influence of microstructure on ballistic performance and high strain rate behavior will be discussed. A phenomenological model describing target/penetrator interactions will be presented.
