For the testing and calibration of anti-tank guns, the term rolled homogeneous armour equivalency (RHAe) is used when giving an estimate of either the penetrative capability of a projectile or the protective capability of a type of armour which may or may not be steel.

Traditionally, a warship's armor system was designed both separately from, and after, the design layout.
