Factory Armoring Procedures & Materials
Armored Vehicle Process |
| |
Apparently, the process of armoring an entire passenger vehicle compartment entails enclosing it in a light-weight composite armors that are impenetrable to all handgun and submachine gun munitions. There are two kinds of armor that are used in the armoring process, transparent and opaque. The Transparent armor is used for the windows and consists of dense layered ballistic glass that is laminated to a tough inner spall shield of resilient polycarbonate. |

| As a matter of fact, in a typical armored vehicle the entire passenger compartment is enclosed in light-weight composite armors that are impervious to all handgun and submachine gun munitions. |

 |
| Secondly, the laminated configuration is similar to what is used in military jet canopies. This process ensures that the glass will not splinter upon impact and will actually absorb the incoming force and reflect it back in the opposite direction. |

Again, the transparent armor potentially offers excellent protection against various ballistic threats and physical attacks depending upon configuration. It meets or exceeds all U.L. 752 and N.I.J.0108.01 requirements to ensure the highest level of quality and performance. It need be said that this product can be curved or flat and has many potential applications without the loss of optical clarity or vision.
Further, Opaque armor is used for the rest of the vehicle and is comprised of several different materials including ballistic nylon, ballistic fiberglass, Kevlar, high-hardened ballistic steel and Spectra Shield™. |

 |
| The Spectra Shield is a composite material laminated under heat and pressure to produce an ultra high-performance ballistic sheet lighter (yet ten times stronger) than steel. It is designed to defuse the force of an incoming projectile through controlled de-lamination. |

 |
Ballistic steel, ballistic nylon, and run flat tire inserts are used to complete the total armoring of each vehicle. |
