Increased threats – increased demand for increased security

Over the past decade to fifteen years, the criminal world and various extremist groups have been increasingly ingenuous for attacks and attacks. In doing so, they are becoming more and more brutal, and there is no prospect of their aggression stopping.

These circumstances alter the international standards of armored vehicle safety by introducing higher requirements and more extreme tests. Separately, car companies are developing new technologies that they use to enhance the protection of their armored cars.

The highest level of protection for armored vehicles is currently VR10. In addition to being protected against various other possible attacks, it includes a special new test and explosion protection certificate. However, this super-level has not yet been introduced globally. It was achieved recently – last year the Mercedes introduced its model with VR10 protection.

Most armored VIP limousines, including state executives, are still at VR9 level. For example, VR9 is the cars that Vladimir Putin moves on, and everyone knows how strictly the Russian president is being guarded. By the way, in 2018, a new modern series of cars will be launched for Russia’s head of state. For them, of course, there are no significant details – cars are made in a small super-secret factory somewhere in Moscow.

Certainly, new technologies and design solutions have been sought, because production has been planned for a short time – the program was adopted in 2014.

There is a limousine, a jeep, a sedan, and a minivan. Apart from the fact that most of the VR10 requirements are likely to be covered, there may be additional “extras” available.

“Audi” also has armored limousine developments where some of the elements meet the requirements of the VR10. As demand in the market is booming, it is assumed that the different companies will soon come out with models with the highest protection, BMW also makes development progress. “Mercedes” is working on a new version that obviously has to “overcome” the current one, although it already has a VR10 level cars.

Luxury and comfort among maximum protection

Enhanced cars are of course heavier due to the reinforced construction, and various elements such as glasses for example. However, this does not deprive them of the luxury and appearance, and of the inside.

Modern designs offer elegant shapes and all the comfort and extras inherent in unfinished luxury cars. The design is such that it can not be recognized what the level of safety is and even distinguishes from luxury unmarked cars. The goal is confusion of potential attackers.

With the exceptionally soft ride, up to 100 kilometers per hour the different models come in 4-6 seconds and their maximum speed is 180 to 250 kilometers per hour.

Of course, the combination of super-luxury and super-security affects the price – it can reach nearly 1.5 million euros.

The first armored non-military car to have achieved the VR10 protection degree is the Mercedes-Maybach S600 Guard. In this limousine, the increased security level for blasting attacks is particularly important.

The tests were done in the city of Ulm – at the prestigious Ballistics Institute, whose trials and certificates are internationally recognized.

The model is resistant to blast attacks in the immediate vicinity or below. With 4 cracked tires, it can maintain up to 100 km / h, has a modern fire system, a black box, an intercom, and so on.

The armor protects the driver and passengers not only from firing a military weapon with munitions but also from high-speed missiles and missiles shot from different angles.

The structural reinforcements in armored cars are enhanced by key areas for passenger and driver protection. Special steel elements are used, technologies include titanium alloys, organic polymers of extreme strength, and so on. Glasses, in addition to thicker ones, are treated with transparent layers of special substances.

In principle, cars with the highest protection are to prevent brutal lethal attacks. They are suitable for presidents, monarchs, heads of international business, or large anti-mafia structures.
