Armoured Toyota Land Cruiser 79 F9-TLC
The F9-TLC offers space for up to 6 people, not to mention plenty of room for additional storage thanks to its extra-large loading area. As with all of our armoured vehicles, the F9-TLC offers exceptional ballistic and explosion protection.
The F9-TLC is based on the Toyota Land Cruiser 79. Its reliable handling, outstanding braking performance and exceptionally robust engine make the F9-TLC the ideal bullet-proof vehicle for day-to-day use.
The armour of the modular passenger compartment is designed entirely as a bolted kit. We refine the installed armour steel in industrial coating processes so that it is permanently protected against corrosion.

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.

Chassis/suspension and brakes
We have equipped the bullet-proof Toyota Land Cruiser 79 with a specially developed chassis that has been adapted to the increased weight. The adapted chassis and suspension elements include the shock absorbers, springs, stabilisers, brake pads, brake discs, brake callipers and brake lines.
Thanks to the optimum adjustment of the axle load, the F9-TLC can be driven safely and reliably even during extreme manoeuvres under full load conditions.
