Abstract

A thermal protection device adapted to extend along a surface to be protected from a thermally and mechanically severe external environment, having an inside face adapted to face the surface to be protected and an outside face adapted to be exposed to the external environment, includes a composite layer containing a refractory armature buried in a thermally insulative material matrix, the device further including a ceramic, metal or metalloid external layer of which the outside face is part and which is attached to the composite layer.
