Vehicle Blast Protection Systems

Minesafe

Vheicle Blast Protection Products

The Minesafe system is designed for each vehicle as a demountable system for protecting the underside and wheel arches of utility vehicles.

It can be an enhancement to the underside blast protection of an armoured vehicle or as a specific kit for a soft skinned vehicles in a post conflict scenario.

For soft skinned vehicles the stiffness of the body has to be upgraded, which is best achieved through the use of a roll cage.

We can also advise on suitable blast mitigation seating and seatbelt combinations. 

XPT

Because of the way in which XPT absorbs blast and dampens accelerations and the through transmission of energy, it is ideal for use on the underside of vehicles.

It of particular benefit in confined spaces such as wheel arches where it will it will protect welded or folded joints from the blast shockwave. See our case study that clearly demonstrates this performance benefit here

XPT for vehicles can be used with a backing armour to provide the mounting system, mechanical support and additional ballistic or fragmentation protection.

Armoured Fuel Can Holder – Long distance operations in the field often require additional supplies of fuel.

The ‘jerrycan’ is the universal tool for this job, but if such operations are in a hazardous environment the transportation of unprotected fuel on vehicle roof racks is an unnecessary risk. Tested with hand grenades, the armoured jerrycan holder protects both petrol and diesel from close range explosive devices.

Armour

Composite Armours

SJH Projects can advise on armour systems for both blast and ballistic applications. The optimum armour is a choice based on a wide range of factors including weight, cost, thickness, stiffness, environmental resistance and usability.

Applications covered include personnel, vehicles, maritime, airborne and static locations. Each has their specific demands and can be catered for from a wide range of material options.

There are different scales for measuring and specifying the performance of armour. The table shown below is the summary given in EN1063.
