360° Protection

The VPAM 7 Armoured Cadillac Escalade combines bold American luxury with elite ballistic protection, making it the ultimate secure transport solution for government dignitaries, VIPs, and corporate executives. Built for those who demand presence, prestige, and protection, this SUV offers uncompromised comfort while ensuring total security against advanced ballistic and explosive threats.

Certified to VPAM BRV 2009 VR7, the Escalade withstands high-caliber threats, including 7.62x51mm NATO rifle rounds, armor-piercing ammunition, and fragments from improvised explosive devices (IEDs), as per ERV 2010. This rating is one of the most respected European standards for armoured vehicle integrity and survivability.

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.
