Protection levels
Start with the threat. Engineer around the vehicle.
Protection levels
Ballistic ratings,
without the noise.
A protection level is a test condition—not a complete vehicle specification. Coverage, overlap, glazing, doors, pillars, floor, roof, suspension and payload must be evaluated together.
Handgun protection.
A lightweight armor package focused on common handgun threats while preserving the vehicle’s appearance, comfort and daily usability.
Typical threats
- .22 LR
- 9 mm
- .38 Special
- .45 ACP
- .357 Magnum
- .44 Magnum
Ammunition, velocity and tested configuration apply.
A defined rifle threat.
Rifle protection specified around the required projectile and vehicle platform.
EN 1063 BR5 reference round
- 5.56 × 45 mm — SS109-type steel penetrator
This is a glazing test-class reference, not a blanket claim for every 5.56 mm load or a complete vehicle. Final coverage follows the written specification and supporting test documentation.
Rifle protection.
A rifle-focused armor package with glazing, opaque armor and supporting vehicle systems engineered together.
Typical threats
- 5.56 × 45 mm
- 7.62 × 39 mm
- 7.62 × 51 mm
- .308 Winchester
Ammunition, velocity and tested configuration apply. Caliber alone does not establish protection against armor-piercing variants.
Engineered for a specific AP threat.
Higher-threat protection requires a vehicle platform capable of carrying the additional armor and supporting systems.
EN 1063 BR7 reference round
- 7.62 × 51 mm — hard steel-core armor-piercing
This is a glazing test-class reference, not protection against every armor-piercing round. Projectile construction, velocity and the tested configuration must match the specification.
Defined by the mission.
Specialty protection requirements are reviewed individually against the vehicle’s payload, architecture and intended use.
Threat specification
- Project-specific ammunition and test requirements
B7+ is not a separate EN 1063 classification and has no universal round list. Exact threats, coverage and performance must be defined in writing and supported by applicable test documentation.
