Just found info on ACAVP or Advanced Composite Armoured Vehicle Platform,
also dubbed the "The Tupperware Tank"
which passed field trials (around May 2001) with DERA and is ready to go
into production with Vickers, Leeds. Usefull info regarding history of
project and new concepts in tank materials.
It can be found here;
