By appropriate thermomechanical processing treatmentin the austenite region of a medium carbon 5Ni steel, three differenttypes of textures, each with various degrees of intensity,have been produced in the quenched-and-tempered high-hardnesssteel armor plates. The various mechanical properties, includingtension, through-thickness tension and compression, impact, fatigue,and fracture toughness, together with the ballistic performanceof the plates as a function of the intensity of thetexture, in particular the (112)+(111) type, are presented anddiscussed.
