• Superior vehicle survivability: Improved ballistic protection and IED blast protection from all angles
• High on and off-road vehicle performance for optimal evasive maneuverability
• High operational temperature range
• Retention of OEM vehicle exterior and features
• Increased vehicle durability and reliability, reduced maintenance, servicing costs and downtime.

• Advanced IED blast protection through integration of interlocked pieces of large armoring panels, maximizing the strength of the armoring material.
• All armoring panels are installed in an overlapping layout to eliminate any gaps in the armoring.
• Full 360 degree “bullet catcher” overlap systems installed in all vehicle openings, from top to bottom.
• Strength of vehicle cabin reinforced by interlocking large pieces of armoring panels, acting as a vehicle roll cage.
• Minimized welding and bolting points prevent collapse of armoring panels in the event of an explosive attack.
• Vehicle chassis, suspension and brakes are upgraded with heavy duty and high performance components to accommodate the additional armoring weight.
• Armored engine bay and fuel tank protect essential vehicle components, ensuring vehicle functionality for evasive maneuvers.

Body Armoring

Using CAD and high precision laser technology, sheets of ballistic steel are cut and bent to the exact measurements of the armoring design.  Advanced machinery and highly trained technicians allow IAG to utilize large pieces of armoring panels instead of welding small pieces together.  This retains the original properties of the ballistic steel, ensuring that the performance of the material is not compromised.  Armoring panels for the front, rear, sides, roof and floor are interlocked and overlapped.  This reinforces the cabin to provide superior IED blast protection; therefore the armoring panels will not be loosened to become shrapnel since they are firmly secured within the chassis.

Door & Window Overlaps with incorporated Spall Shields (Bullet Catchers)

All doors and hatch areas feature full armoring overlap from top to the bottom with customized door panels to enhance protection from all angles.  The ballistic glass is installed in armored “U-channel” frames to provide overlapping protection and secure the glass in place.  In the event of a blast, the armoring is designed to reinforce the door and glass to remain in the frame, therefore preventing it from being knocked out of place by the pressures of the blast. 

The transparent armoring on all IAG vehicles is rated to withstand three rounds fired in a 70mm triangle, a tighter grouping than the CEN standard of 120mm.  The implication is that the ballistic glass will be able to withstand more rounds.  Additionally, the transparent armoring is rated for a high operational temperature range and features integrated spall shields to prevent the ballistic glass from shattering and delaminating. 

All IAG vehicles come equipped with ballistic steel protection over the battery, ECU, fenders, behind the headlights, the master cylinder and the fuel tank.  Armoring these essential components of the vehicle ensures that the vehicle remains drivable to perform evasive maneuvers during an attack.  In addition, we also offer optional upgrades such as secondary cooling fan and air scoop(s) to enhance engine cooling and front and side radiator protection specifically engineered for optimal air flow.

IAG offers upgraded suspension and braking packages to improve the armored vehicle performance and handling.  The addition of slotted brake discs improves the ventilation and grip of the brake pads. On the other hand, the heavy duty brake pads significantly reduce friction and stoppage distances.  Heavy duty shock absorbers and heavy duty struts with 2-stage coil springs and external gas/oil reservoir allow for superb handling and cater to the additional weight of the armor on the vehicle.  All IAG vehicles are equipped with run-flat tires, allowing the vehicle to evade attackers even if the tires are punctured.

Vehicle Chassis Reinforcement
IAG armoring design integrates interlocking vehicle body armoring panels that act as a roll cage and increase chassis rigidity to provide rollover protection.  Heavy duty hinges and nylon strap buffers are installed on all doors in order to ensure proper alignment and increase operational lifetime.  All interior protrusions such as rivets are minimized to prevent injury to occupants.  By reinforcing the chassis, IAG armored vehicles provide superior blast protection with a strong armored cabin that is integrated to the chassis so that the armoring will remain intact.
