4 1.0 Background The height of luxury, combined with the handling people have come to expect from German engineered vehicles, the Mercedes Benz S- 500 provides the user with the top of the line in today s luxury sedans. The armored MB S-500 is also expected to supply those in need of an armored touring sedan with all of the quality, comfort and power that International Armored Group s clients have come to expect from our own engineering team. IAG has spent months working to ensure that this vehicle lives up to, and even exceeds the expectations of the client, and we offer the latest of MB s greatest as our contribution to this important market sector with full confidence. International Armored Group is a manufacturer specialized in vehicle armoring with over a decade of experience in the security/military vehicles and cash in transit industry. IAG has manufactured and sold thousands of armored vehicles worldwide, many of them operating in high risk areas such as Iraq and Afghanistan. Even though IAG vehicles have gone through countless attacks, our 100% safety record still remains intact. Our unique armoring designs provide high reliability and durability, ensuring that the vehicles will be virtually free of warranty issues despite the fact that the armoring process adds a substantial amount of additional weight on the factory chassis. The following specification details the armoring modifications performed at IAG to offer the finest protective vehicle in its class: 4

7 3.0 Armoring Details 3.1 Opaque Armor Five sided armoring of passenger compartment using certified ballistic steel plating to defeat high-powered rifle fire, 7.62 x 51 M80 NATO 2,750 fps. (Meets or exceeds CEN level B6, see Ballistic Specifications in section 4.0) Floor is fitted with steel blast protection to protect occupants against fragmentation from simultaneous detonation of 2 DM-51 German ordnance hand grenades or equivalent. Armoring included on kick panels, front fenders, rear wheel wells, firewall, A, B, and C door pillars and posts. Armor consists of welded certified ballistic grade steel construction. Certain International Armored Group designed materials and installation techniques are used which permit a significant reduction in cost to the client while maintaining our improving structural integrity and ballistic resistance level. The interior frame, constructed of certified ballistic grade steel, provides overlap and backup protection for the large-surface principal impact areas such as the doors and windows. It also reinforces the structural integrity of the pillars and other areas that are typically ignored or poorly armored by other manufacturers. Vehicle armoring shall be constructed in such a way as to ensure that a projectile following a linear or angled path shall not enter the vehicle s interior without contacting the armor material. In addition to this, the possibility of a projectile entering the vehicle s interior due to a ricochet from the armor shall also be minimized. 3.2 Transparent Armor A combination of glass, Polycarbonate and Mylar are bonded together using the latest technology, producing one of the finest transparent armors available while incorporating the following. Meets or exceeds levels CEN B6 ballistic protection, (see section 4.0 for ballistic specifications) Anti-spall shield protecting against shattering glass Multiple impact protection (three shot). Finest optical quality offers minimal distortion ** Important New Feature** Many users are not aware that the ambient heating of glass in hot climates can actually reduce the ballistic resistance of the transparent armor significantly. IAG armored glasses are constructed using special techniques which modify the heat absorption properties of the glass to virtually eliminate this problem. The result ballistic resistance is maintained even in regions of consistent hot weather. 7

8 3.3 Doors Armor overlap at all doors to prevent penetration through door posts and pillars. Door pillars reinforced for maximum strength retention. Door hinges replaced where required with custom engineered heavy duty hinges. Handles are upgraded to provide longer life in rugged environments. 3.4 Electrical All standard electrical equipment of this vehicle shall be tested and modified as necessary to protect against the armoring process. The battery and ECU are located under the driver seat in the passenger cabin and therefore are protected by the cabin opaque armoring. 3.5 Interior All original OEM interior panels and trim may be resized or modified and re-installed wherever possible to obtain as close to an original look as possible. The interior shall retain its luxurious appearance even after the armoring conversion 3.6 Brakes International Armored Group undertakes to provide a superior handling vehicle as an alternative to most vehicles in the industry. To this end we upgrade the braking systems of this vehicle for improved performance and safety. Front discs are replaced with slotted, vented discs for better heat dissipation. Optional upgraded systems are custom made for IAG using even sturdier brake materials taken from the automotive racing industry and engineered to perform in an armored vehicle application. 3.7 Suspension The Mercedes S500 comes equipped with air suspension as such it cannot be upgraded or reinforced. Based on the findings of IAG s engineering team, the OEM suspension has proven strong enough to handle the armored vehicle weight plus passengers. 8

9 3.8 Tires and Run Flats Overheating of tires during service is a major cause of blowouts in the security and protection industry. IAG has developed unique methods to offset the effects of overheat during service, thereby ensuring that our vehicle tires will maintain a lower operating temperature and guard against dangerous blowouts at all times during a mission The certified run flat tires used by IAG have been proven as reliable by clients worldwide in a variety of unique operating environments. This guarantees improved performance in the event that the vehicle tires become disabled Run-flat installation in this vehicle also possible dependent upon the final selection of the rim & tire by the client. If runflat installation is chosen, the rims and tires need to be downgraded to a smaller size to accommodate the runflats. IAG strongly recommends downgrading the rims and tires and selecting the runflat installation option for this vehicle. 3.9 Other Features Vehicle tire jack (upgraded if necessary to lift additional weight of armor) & tire iron Steel protection over fuel tank. All manuals and written information provided by vehicle manufacturer shall be included. All armoring completed by experienced technicians. Certificate of Compliance can be provided along with certificates of material testing Roof also armored to level B Weights Complete vehicle empty weight after armoring is approximately 3,010kg. ***Please note that the centre of gravity in any vehicle is raised after armoring which can affect the stability in cornering and braking. While suspension upgrades have been completed to offset this effect, care must be taken in handling the vehicle. It is recommended that drivers are trained to handle the vehicle with the increase in weight load and change in centre of gravity position.*** 9

10 4.0 Ballistic Specifications The following tables represent the Ballistic protection levels for the above mentioned vehicle: (CEN level B6). Opaque Armor: Armored passenger compartment roof and 4 sides only. Floor of passenger compartment is protected to shield against fragmentation from simultaneous detonation of 2 DM- 51 German ordnance hand grenades or equivalent. 10
