AKSUM® Armored Vehicles: Unyielding Bulletproof Protection

In the armored vehicle industry, bullet-proof glass is often termed “transparent armor” or “ballistic glass.” This specialized glass varies in thickness and can withstand attacks from high-caliber assault rifles, sniper rifles, and even heavy artillery like RPGs. Transparent armor resembles the safety glass in standard car windows, but it consists of layers of polycarbonate and leaded glass. This composition results in a material that is thicker and safer than regular glass. AKSUM® armored vehicles feature a new generation of bulletproof glass, which offers enhanced transparency compared to other ballistic glass on the market while maintaining robust ballistic protection. If live bullets strike AKSUM® bulletproof windows, the outer glass layer would be pierced, but the tough plastic layer absorbs the bullet’s energy, stopping it before it penetrates the final glass layer. AKSUM® Armored Vehicle Manufacturing, a leading Canadian company, specializes in designing and producing a wide range of armored vehicles, including executive SUVs, luxury sedans, special purpose vehicles, personnel carriers, and cash-in-transit vehicles.
