This article deals with techniques which have been developed to study the behavior of composite materials and structures under high speed ballistic impact conditions at the NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC) Ballistic Impact Facility. The techniques include launching systems, fixture methods, imaging systems and instrumentation systems.
