The airplane is encountering quite a force when flying.
Polymer is used because it is extremely strong. It will try to "absorb" an impact rather than just break into little pieces.
A windshield/window of an airplane is designed to withstand the actual impact of even largish birds.
At some time they did indeed test windshields/windows for planes with something commonly known as a Chicken Gun.
In the early days there was a person who smashed one windscreen after another and he could not understand why because they should withstand it.
After a while somebody asked him if he had defrosted the chicken first. Ooops.
The windscreens on airplanes are not tough enough to withstand frozen solid birds.

polymer
Is polyvinyl carbazole used as polymer electrlyte?
yes pvk used as electrlyte as blend with other polymer
What is a 'dry polymer'?
A dry polymer is one that is not in solution. they are used where moisture would create an issue. Sometimes dry polymer powder is added to cement so that when the cement is hydrated to make concrete, the dry polymer is hydrated at the same time. If a wet polymer, or polymer solution were used, it would react with the cement and make it unusable.
