Different types of composite materials with potential application in ballistic protection of static objects are discussed and compared in present study. The studied solutions include: 1) the concretes with or without reinforcement, 2) the metallic boxes with internal gap filled with different materials and 3) the ceramics-metallic composite armours. Besides the ballistic resistance, the areal weight and the price are taken into account. The weight of solutions is important in case of static objects mainly from logistic point of view. The proposals of ballistic compositions presented in the study can facilitate the choice of solutions according to specific requests.
