Blasting specification
Protection class VPAM ERV2010 / STANAG 4569
Our armored vehicles are certified, among others, in compliance with VPAM ERV2010 and STANAG 4569. The testing procedures include the blasting of different types of hand grenades (DM51, HG85) on the vehicle roof and under the vehicle. In compliance with STANAG 4569 AEP-55 we also test protection against land mines of type AP DM31 and similar, and against 6-kg land mines. On request, we simulate the effects of a TNT or PETN car bomb blasting on the lateral sides of a vehicle. All tests are performed by state-approved proof houses (Beschussamt) or IABG, a German analysis and testing company.
