Abstract Aircraft safety and security is a very important problem of nowadays. Terrorist bomb attacks on transport are most dangerous and often result in numerous victims. Threat of terrorist attacks on air transport is a nagging problem. The goal of the present paper is to present results of developing efficient air bomb inhibitors that preserve aircraft safety in case of onboard detonation of explosive equal of 2kg TNT. Methods for protection developed within the present paper could be successfully used for developing effective and lightweight shield for a spacecraft against high velocity impact of space debris fragments, which could also induce blast loads.
Highlights An efficient air bomb inhibitor was developed preserving aircraft in case of onboard detonation of explosive up to 2kg TNT. Theoretical analysis made it possible to suggest effective and light-weighted shielding material. Experimental investigations and field tests testified its effectiveness. On-board experiments were performed successfully.
