In a
typical armored vehicle the entire passenger compartment is enclosed
in lightweight composite armors that are impervious to all hand gun
and submachine gun munitions. Two
types of armor are used in the armoring process, transparent and opaque.
Transparent armor used for the windows consists of layers of dense ballistic
glass laminated to a tough inner spall shield of resilient polycarbonate.
This laminated configuration is similar to what is used in military
jet canopies. Also, the glass will not splinter upon impact but actually
absorbs the incoming force and reflects it back in the opposite direction.
The transparent armor offers excellent protection against various ballistic threats and physical attack 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. This product can be curved or flat and has many potential applications without the loss of optical clarity.
Spectra Shield (tm), is a composite material laminated under heat and pressure, to produce an ultra high-performance ballistic sheet lighter but ten times stronger than steel. It is designed to defuse the force of an incoming projectile through controlled delamination.
Ballistic steel and nylon as well as run flat tire inserts are used to complete the total armoring of each vehicle.
