Executive Armored Limousine

Presenting the first of Tanagondaria's first and latest line of vehicles, the EV-1 Armored Limousine.

The EV-1 Armored Limousine is the ultimate in exclusive luxury with a high level of safety consciousness. They offer even more space, and this makes them the crowning achievement in mobile workplaces for the highest placed VIPs. Depending on the threat level, these limousines are reinforced to the highest level while still maintaining excellent driving characteristics and performance.

The high-tech construction of the Ballistika tank prevents the fuel from exploding when projectiles hit the fuel tank.

Two-way intercom unit enables the vehicle occupants to communicate with the outside world with the windows closed.

An alarm siren is an integral part of the standard safety equipment of any Advanced Armour vehicle. Breakdown proof and over which nothing can be heard, it attracts the immediate attention of the emergency services to the vehicle in question and makes sure help arrives quickly.

The window panes of Advanced Armour personal protection vehicles consist of up to 72 mm thick, bulletproof, non-splinter, multiple layer reinforced glass. Despite their weight, driver’s und co-driver’s windows can be lowered by means of a specially designed power windows.

By their very nature, personal protection vehicles contain numerous additional electrical and electronic devices. Additional batteries are provided and can be recharged over night at any external electric socket thanks to a battery charger located in the trunk.

To safeguard against explosive charges set to go off when the vehicle ignition or door locks are activated, the central locking system and engine can be activated by remote start system from a distance of more than 100 m. This means that any explosive devices are set off at a safe distance.

Integrated heating filaments prevent the build-up of damp condensation and ensure that the thick panes of bullet-proof glass are quickly de-iced in cold weather.

Optional Features:

Emergency run-flat inserts enable the vehicle to continue moving up to 50 km/h even after tire deflation (including a full replacement fifth wheel).

Escort Vehicle Warning System
When the driver accelerates or brakes, a signal lamp in the rear window alerts the escort vehicle which usually follows close behind.

Bomb Detector
Locates any magnetically attached explosive charges.

Anti-Kidnapping Equipment

Smoke Systems

Modified Suspension

Materials
An individually configurable, modular system of concealed safety elements which, when combined, provide effective protection against kidnapping. Surprise and unexpected resistance make it very difficult for the attacker, thus allowing the driver to gain precious time to take countermeasures.

Passive components: partial to complete armor plating, ballistic module made of bulletproof glass, door, column and rear protection.

Active components: alarm and communication devices, emergency running module, locking module, trunk module (with concealed opening mechanism, additional light and air intake, alarm and blocking switch).

Extras: remote start module; emergency securing module (for remote-controlled door locking to lock in intruders), bomb detection module, additional battery, roof protection module, floor protection module, "Ballistika" tank, additional lowerable windows.

Special Equipment:
On demand, special chaff and flare despensers can be made available to customers. These devices have been made to distract and mislead heat and radar guided misslies.

There are only 25 models currently available. The EV-1 and all its handcrafted compoments are patented and copywrited under international law.

Contact me for purchase orders. Price is set at $2.5 million USD per vehicle

We have stepped up production of the EV-1 and will be able to meet the orders on time for delivery.

A new batch of 50 vehicles are ready.

We, the government of Tybonia, order 5, with the following provisions. 1) All the options, this is the safety of our government, it's worth it. 2) The ability to use less than lethal force, be it tear gas, mace, electric shock, etc. 3) The ability to mount some type of offensive weaponry, be it laser or conventional projectile (Browning .50 cal or grenade launcher) in case the less than lethal deterrent fails .4) That one of them be equipped for night driving with a forward looking infrared device. 5) they all be equipped for secure communications and conferencing equipment (our government will install this).
We realize that this will push the price over 2.5 Mil per vehicle, but that is ok, this is for the protection of those who protect and run our country, so it's definately worth it.

We have begun installation of selected equipment. We can aquire and install at your pleasure the following:

M134 7.62mm "minigun" (http://tri.army.mil/LC/CS/csa/xm196.jpg)

M60D 7.62mm machine gun (http://tri.army.mil/LC/CS/csa/m60dmg.jpg)

If you have a special request, we will be happy to oblige in whatever way we can. Unfortunately, there is only space for one weapon, of medium size, which will be housed in the boot compartment and can be deployed, aimed, and fired with a hydraulic system. Unfortunately, we will have to develop this technology ourselves and will have to increase the costs of the vehicles to $3.5 Million USD for each of the 5 EV-1(Varient A)

Unfortunately, at this time, we have no intention of branching out our services from the executive luxury line. Our vehicles are tailor made to exacting specifications and are dedicated to the use of corporate executives, presidents, premiers and royalty. The EV-1 has been clinicly tested to be able to withstand a direct hit from a tank shell, and it designed to flip rather than allow penetration, drasticly improving survivability with the pressurized air bags that quickly deflate for immediate vehicles evacuation.

The cars emit passive damping signals and can jam radio signals as well as emit high frequency sound bursts that are damaging to the human ear. These technologies are not manufactured within Tanagondaria however, and was purchased througha corporate sponsership program.

My country may be able to help you out there. We have a system, originally developed as a camera mounting system for news vehicles. With a few, very minor, adjustments, it would also make the perfect weapons mounting platform. It features high speed tracking with a full 360 degrees of pan, as well as 135 degrees (90 up, 45 down) of tilt... It is joystick operated, and said operator can use it from anywhere within 50 feet of the car. The original system included a boom that would extend to give the platform a height of 5 meters, but the extension capability would be removed or limited, as this feature offers little use as a weapons platform. The system is gyroscopically and laser stabilzed, and can hold a shake-free camera shot while moving at up to 50 mi/h (when the boom is retracted (1m above vehicle)....
Perhaps this would be of some use to your industry... Contact me, and we can discuss the details of you using this system in your vehicles... Perhaps the arrangement could be made for as little as the price of one of the vehicles I ordered.

we also have several very interesting "less than lethal weapons technologies"... our law enforcement community, following a series of accidental shootings, put their scientists to work finding new "less than lethal" and "area denial" techs.
Perhaps the most interesting is a device that uses low frequency sound waves to cause the person (or people) it is used on to lose control of their bowel movements, and usually resulting in complience.... Also, we are experimenting with hallucinatory chemicals and disorienting strobes...
Perhaps these can be used on your vehicles....
