Armor window

An armor window comprising:

• a frame including symmetrically opposing side members and opposing end members;
• a plurality of angle irons each having two depending flanges disposed at right angles to each other and joined along proximate upper edges to form an apex, said angle irons defining optically flat mirror surfaces on the outer and inner sides of both flanges;
• means for supporting said angle irons at their opposite ends upon said opposing side members with said flanges and apexes spaced from each other for movement of air and sound between them and said apexes being disposed on a center line and spaced a distance less than approximately one-half the width of one of said flanges for continuous overlapping of flanges with their apexes parallel with each other to interrupt direct lines of sight between the angle irons;
• said supporting means including opposing support journals secured to the opposite ends of said alternate angle irons;
• bearing means for journalling said opposing support journals in said opposing side members for pivotally supporting the alternate angle irons upon axes disposed in close proximity to the apexes of said angle irons;
• means for rotating said journal means including radially extending elements on said journal means;
• and
• manually controlled means for actuating said extending elements in unison.
