Sikorsky Black Hawk windshields
PPG's aerospace transparencies business is a leading and
experienced manufacturer of windshields, canopies, windows,
blast barriers and specialty transparencies for military
applications. With a broad range of capabilities, PPG is able to
design and produce advanced-technology transparencies to
meet the demanding requirements of military air and surface
operations.
PPG offers a variety of transparent structural materials to
meet specific design and performance requirements. PPG's
thermally tempered glass offers impact and thermal shock
resistance as well as high load-carrying capabilities. PPG's
chemically strengthened glass provides superior strength
and durability. Special-composition glass incorporates
enhanced optical properties with high light transmittance.
Plastic substrate materials include acrylic that is strong and
lightweight, and polycarbonate that has superior impact
resistance and a high strength-to-weight ratio. PPG interlayers
bond the plies together and provide ballistic properties, bird-
impact resistance and pressure “fail-safe” capability. In-house
capabilities allow PPG to engineer and produce interlayers
specially tailored to aerospace applications.
PPG offers advanced coatings that protect transparencies and
aircrews from various operational or environmental threats.

Other PPG advanced coatings and technologies help protect
transparencies and aircrews from operational or environmental
threats, and provide a variety of performance enhancements.
A few of these are solar heat reduction, laser protection
and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. Such
technologies are designed to be compatible with night vision
systems and other optical requirements.
PPG transparencies have flown numerous military missions.
The company is a leader in its transparency technical
capabilities and infrastructure, OEM and operator support, and
ability to supply parts worldwide on a timely and affordable
basis.
