In an aircraft, the airframe includes a windshield frame, with an energy attenuating windshield corner support extending across a corner of the windshield frame. The energy attenuating windshield corner support is configured to deform upon an impact to a windshield disposed in the windshield frame. This energy attenuating windshield corner support may be shaped and/or sized to enable, and/or comprised of a material that enables, the aircraft windshield corner support to deform upon the impact to the windshield disposed in the windshield frame, attenuating energy of the impact to the windshield disposed in the windshield frame.
