Armoured Defender

Vehicle Summary

Land Rover is proud to introduce its first ever Factory-Approved Armoured Defender. It has been developed in conjunction with the RMA Group, Land Rover’s first Approved Vehicle Modifier (AVM).

Our Armoured Defender has been designed and engineered to the BRV (Bullet Resistant Vehicles) 2009 VR7 standard of protection and independently tested and certified by the world renowned and well recognised independent testing agency for armoured vehicles - QinetiQ. Reassurance built in and is supported by a full Land Rover warranty.

The vehicle is subjected to the most comprehensive and up to date standard -BRV 2009 VR7. Under this new regulation, which will soon become a global benchmark, the whole vehicle is subjected to projectiles fired from any impact angle anywhere on the vehicle. This means that the vehicle is tested thoroughly against any weakness in the vehicle’s armouring design.
