Yes, upgraded suspensions and enhancements to the armored vehicle brake systems are essential to handle the extra weight from armor plating and bulletproof glass. Alpine Armoring conducts dynamic armored vehicle testing, including rigorous performance tests such as slalom and Moose tests, to ensure safety across all armored SUVs, sedans, pickup trucks, and vans. Our heavy-duty suspension and high-performance braking systems maintain stability and control in armored vehicles while delivering optimal braking response under heavy load.
Suspension: Alpine Armoring's bulletproof car suspension upgrade incorporates advanced vehicle weight distribution systems. Our reinforced suspension systems utilize hydropneumatic technology, torsion bars, and/or coil springs designed for the durability of armored car suspension across diverse terrains. Every armored vehicle is designed to distribute weight evenly, enhancing traction and maneuverability while minimizing tire wear. This ensures off-road suspension performance during tactical maneuvers. This upgrade accommodates extra weight, allowing for armor without compromising handling.
Braking: The armored vehicle braking system receives comprehensive upgrades to maintain stopping power. Alpine Armoring installs upgraded brake pads, compensating for longer stopping distances. Our high-performance armored brakes undergo controlled deceleration trials on asphalt, gravel, snow, and wet surfaces. Advanced data acquisition systems monitor braking distances and stability during sudden stops. The Alpine Armoring suspension and brake upgrade for armored cars delivers superior responsiveness and exceeds automotive safety standards.
Today, active suspension systems on armored vehicles use sensors and computer-controlled components that adjust settings in real-time based on terrain. Furthermore, advancements in AI technology have introduced systems that analyze data from accelerometers and cameras, predicting terrain changes and improving traction and maneuverability.
Alpine Armoring's engineering ensures that every vehicle maintains safety, comfort, and performance through properly upgraded suspension and brake systems designed specifically for armored vehicle applications.
