For the world’s elite business leaders and rulers, security often comes at the cost of style. That’s why, in early 2007, Land Rover Special Vehicles (a division of Land Rover Brands) launched what some may consider a significant advance in the world of personal safety. The technology included in this vehicle is similar to that commonly found in presidential family vehicles or SIS vehicles used to transport the royal family.
The Range Rover Vogue Security Vehicle is a fully armored Range Rover Vogue designed to protect the occupants from a variety of lethal weaponry, including grenades, automatic machine guns such as the AK47 and Claymore mines. The vehicle can be equipped with four different levels of armor depending on the customer and perceived threat levels.
This amazing level of security found in Range Rover armored vehicles is facilitated by the use of next-generation technologies and components, including blast-resistant and ballistic steel, Kevlar, Spectra-shield and Dyneema fibres. These components are distributed over the entire surface of the car to protect it from direct attacks as well as vector-based weaponry. To protect against grenades and IEDs, the underbody of the car has also been structurally strengthened. The vehicle’s glass is plasma cut and up to 40mm thick to neutralize most projectile based attacks.
Should an attack be launched, the Range Rover Vogue security vehicle, four-wheel drive chassis and off-road ground clearance allow for a convenient escape across any terrain and the structural integrity to traverse many fixed obstacles and static. The 3.5-tonne vehicle also includes an internal oxygen system, reinforced fuel tank and battery, and run-flat tires.
In a world of piracy on the high seas, extremist groups, and evil that lurks around every corner, both abroad and at home, it goes without saying that these technological innovations are not just a luxury, but an essential component in promoting security. and stability in turbulent times.
