Does the AAMA Certification label shown here 
(source: fayor.com)
imply that the window has been subject to wind and projectile testing?
If so, where can I find the details of that testing?

It's a window latch and keeper. Unscrew a good one, head over the your local hardware store, and see if they have a match in stock. Pay close attention to the distance between the screw holes and the how tight the two parts are pulled together. They come in a lot of styles, e.g. this would work if the keeper was on a horizontal instead of on a vertical surface:
You can also look online, and worst case scenario, you'll have to go to the window manufacturer to get the replacement parts.
I like the answer JonW gave, but also would suggest just putting an awning over your existing window and opening it from the top as it's likely to be a bit less expensive.
Edit: I passed this house fixed type awning system and decided to grab a shot to add t this post

The specifications are in the middle panel of the sticker (with the security standards at the bottom of the right panel. While it would probably be extremely difficult to get the testing results on the actual window model itself, all of the specs give minimum performance requirements and the certification means that the model passed.
The relevant ones are ANSI/AAMA 101-93 (the DH-C## ones are for double hung condensation resistance), AAMA 1302.5, AAMA 1303.5, ASTM F 588 and ASTM F 842, which cover forced entry resistance.
You can find a pretty good simplified run-down in this pdf. If you want all the gory details, the full specification is available here, but I'm not sure it's the most recent version.
