3S develop test protocols that represents current threats. Armour elements and vehicles are designed to meet these protocols
Protection Levels
The Threat Today
Improvised Explosive Device (IED) sprays steel fragments at high concentrations and very high velocity (many times faster than a typical 7.62)
Fully automatic assault rifle for multiple hits in close proximity to each other (AK-47). Compound attacks such as IED followed by armour piercing rounds.
More prevalent Armour Piercing ammunition with hardened steel cores.
A new Test Protocol designed to represent the Current Threat – unlike any other existing standard and not comparable.
- New armour material systems to meet Current Threat.
- New armour integration methods to meet Current Threat.
- New integrated features to meet Current Threat.
