Over the years, combat has evolved from conventional to asymmetrical warfare, and armed forces are now dealing with guerrilla tactics. The implication is that military and peacekeeping personnel are more susceptible to ambushes and face the possible threat of high powered large machine guns and sniper fire in addition to assault rifles and submachine guns.
Armored Toyota
To ensure personnel safety IAG is proud to introduce the armored Toyota Land Cruiser 200 Series B7, offering superior ballistic and blast protection. It is important to note that unlike most other offerings on the market, the IAG Land Cruiser B7 is able to stop multiple shots as opposed to a single shot. This is made possible by using much thicker opaque and transparent armoring.
Transparent B7 Armor
In addition, IAG utilizes special transparent armor with Solar Plus™ feature which ensures that the glass maintains ballistic performance even under higher ambient temperatures.
Other various components of the vehicle such as the suspension and braking system are also upgraded to compensate for the additional mass of the B7 level of armoring, improving vehicle dynamics in order to maintain a high level of comfort without compromising performance and safety.
This is all reflective of IAG’s Smartarmor™ manufacturing process and the holistic approach and commitment to continually innovate in the design process. This provides high flexibility in terms of customization and facilitates a quick product development cycle, all the while maintaining the required ballistic performance.
There are now 13 different variants of the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 Series in the IAG product range, all of which provide a minimum level of B6+ armoring along with a large variety of customization options to meet your every need.
