Precision Engineered

360° Protection

The VPAM 7 Armoured Toyota Hilux CIT is purpose-built for the secure transport of currency, precious metals, and high-value assets in high-threat environments.

It combines Toyota’s legendary Hilux 4×4 durability with advanced VPAM BRV 2009 VR7-certified ballistic protection and specialised CIT cargo security systems, delivering a platform trusted by banks, security companies, and government cash-handling operations worldwide.

The passenger cabin is fully armored with large, uninterrupted ballistic plates composed of premium-grade armored steel for maximum protection.

Vehicles are equipped with fully armored doors, floor panels, roofs, and ballistic overlaps, creating an uncompromised level of security.

Critical structural points are reinforced for durability and reliability, while other modifications may be made to maintain vehicle characteristics.

BLS armoring materials are manufactured to reflect the vehicle’s original design while enforcing a high level of security that remains discreet.

All armoring designs are prototyped and subsequently fabricated by our engineers and are proprietary to our organization.

Ballistic standards are tested by accredited 3rd-party laboratories to certify bullet resistance to internationally accepted standards.
