Zusammenfassung:	An emergency egress system and method features a mount securable externally to a vehicle hull about an opening therein and including a first portion of a releasable hinge structure. A window assembly includes a second portion of the releasable hinge structure hingedly attaching the window assembly to the mount over the hull opening. An ejection subsystem is releasably attached to the armor window automatically opening window assembly and ejecting the window assembly. A latch subsystem is actuatable from inside the hull (and optionally from outside the hull) releasably locking the armor window assembly with respect to the mount in a first configuration and unlocking the armor window assembly with respect to the mount in a second configuration.
