Here’s what Trasco Bremen’s armored Land Rover Defender 110 offers.
developed to the anti-kidnapping VPAM4 and VPAM6 standards, aimed at traditional private buyers of armored SUVs. This armoring standard combines a medium level of ballistic protection with nearly unnoticeable installation—ideal for higher-risk countries, but less ideal for active war zones.Trasco Bremen's A-Kip, or anti-kidnapping level of protection, uses lightweight materials to preserve the Defender 110's handling and performance characteristics.
For the Defender 110, Trasco also offers optional features for the Defender including a self-sealing fuel tank, an automatic fire suppression system for the engine bay, ECU protection underhood, extended floor protection from DM51 fragmentation grenades, blue strobes, and a siren and intercom system, which allows the driver to converse with people outside without lowering the windows.
"A fully heavy armored vehicle may provide the highest level of protection however does come with some disadvantages, a heavy armored vehicle has a substantial weight increase over a standard vehicle and the performance and handling requires a highly skilled and trained driver," the company explains.
Of course, there are quite a few levels above VPAM 6, and they contemplate heavier ammunition from other types of assault rifles. A number of armorers including Trasco offer VPAM levels 7 through 9, with VPAM 9 corresponding to the better-known B7 level with a minimum of 14.5-mm thick steel. Trasco offers that level as well, including in the Range Rover.
