Abstract
The invention relates to a protection panel (115) for a vehicle that comprises an outer surface (140) including at least one composite material, and is mounted via deformable parts on a mounting (135) attached to the vehicle structure. The deformable parts are attached to several stiffening parts (145) of the mounting. In some embodiments, the deformable parts are perpendicular to the outer surface of the panel and are capable of buckling under the effect of impacts. In some embodiments, the deformable parts are in the form of clips, the composite material consists of CFRP and the mounting is rigid.
