In order to study the difference of ballistic performance in different area of ceramic composite spaced targets, penetration experiment of two targets is conducted. Based on the experiment results, simulation method is used with the dynamic analysis software ANSYS/LS-DYNA, by which the process and mechanism of armour protection is discussed, as well as the effect of unit shape on ballistic performance of targets. It is revealed that the segmentation degree of ceramic cone accounts for the difference in ballistic performance. Besides, the critical points of effective protection is calculated, and the effective protective area of both targets is measured.
