The characteristics required for both windshields and port windows subsonic and supersonic aircraft are described. The following subjects are treated: nature of materials and systems used, quality requirements (pressure and impact resistance, optical properties, endurance, defrosting possibilities, weight, resistance to abrasion manufacturing techniques and heat treatments. The evolution that has taken place over recent years in the design of such systems and in the materials used is discussed together with experience with A 300 B material and future developments expected in this field.
