Testing of specially protected vehicles
Technical information regarding the resistance classesSpecial protection vehicles are divided into different resistance and ballistic classes.
However, it is not the resistance of the entire vehicle that is determined, but the resistance of the various materials used. The resistance classes are certified in accordance with DIN and European standards according to the impact of firearms that the armor can withstand. EN 1063 applies to transparent materials (glazing), while EN 1522 and EN 1523 define the properties for the opaque materials of the other body parts.
In Germany, the vehicle is certified in the respective resistance class by the Mellrichstadt, Munich and Ulm bulletproofing authorities. The classes used to be subdivided from B1 to B7 (“bullet resistance class”) for body parts and analogously with BR1 to BR7 for glazing. The current abbreviation VR stands for “Vehicle Resistance”. The following is a tabular list in accordance with BRV 1999.
For more detailed information, please contact the Bulletproofing Office:
Class | Caliber | Distance | Speed | Type of weapon |
---|---|---|---|---|
VR1 | .22 | 10 Meters | 360 m/s | Rifle |
VR2 | 9mm Parabellum | 5 Meters | 360 m/s | Hand gun |
VR3 | 9mm Luger | 5 Meters | 415 m/s | Hand gun |
VR4 | .44 REM. Magnum / .357 Magnum | 5 Meters | 440 m/s | Hand gun |
VR5 | .357 Magnum | 5 Meters | 580 m/s | Hand gun |
VR6 | 7,62 × 39 mm | 10 Meters | 720 m/s | Rifle |
VR7 | 7,62 × 51 mm NATO | 10 Meters | 830 m/s | Rifle |
VR9 | 7,62 × 51 mm NATO cartridge | 10 Meters | 820 m/s | Rifle |
VR10 | 7,62 × 54 mm NATO cartridge | 10 Meters | 860 m/s | Rifle |
VRSG1 | 12/70 Powerful rifle cartridge | 10 Meters | 420 m/s | Shotgun |
If several calibers are specified, the test must be carried out with both calibers in order to achieve the resistance class. The most commonly used resistance classes are B4 and B6/B7. The slash in the specification for the so-called heavy armor means that the chassis corresponds to bullet resistance class B7 and the glazing to bullet resistance class BR6.
