Packages & Options
Every A-KIP® (Anti-Kidnapping Protection) Defender is built from a standard package with certified ballistic materials – defined by model and protection level – and refined with optional security features. Compare the configurations and compose your build.
Both models remain within their gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) at both levels – no chassis or brake upgrades, full airbag function and driver assistance systems (ADAS) retained.
Standard A-KIP® Package – Defender 110 · VPAM 4
Windshield
Ballistic glass certified to VPAM-PM 4 (≈ 22 mm) – front camera and ADAS functions retained.
Ballistic glass certified to VPAM-PM 6 (≈ 33 mm) – front camera and ADAS functions retained.
Side door glass
All four side door windows in certified ballistic glass, VPAM-PM 4 (≈ 22 mm).
All four side door windows in certified ballistic glass, VPAM-PM 6 (≈ 33 mm).
Doors (inside)
Certified ballistic materials inside all front and rear side doors.
Certified ballistic materials inside all side doors and the rear tailgate.
Rear protection
Ballistic partition wall with integrated ballistic glass window behind the rear seats – tailgate and rear glass remain factory standard.
Tailgate and tailgate glass protected – certified ballistic materials and ballistic glass.
Cargo side glass
Protected on the inside with opaque ballistic material, finished with OEM fabric trim – original exterior appearance with dark tinted glass.
Roof
Main roof incl. Alpine windows in ballistic steel and/or special composites – protected against 30° attack.
Panoramic roof protected by certified laminated multi-layer security film with UV filter (Class A3, DIN 52290-4 / EN 356, Level P4A) – the panoramic roof remains functional.
Main roof in ballistic steel and/or special composites against 30° attack – panoramic roof deactivated, sunblind fixed in closed position.
Underbody
Blast and fragmentation protection in the footwell floor areas.
Spare wheel
Removed to maximize available payload – tailgate finished with high-quality trim panels; emergency tire sealant repair system with compressor included.
Marked elements adapt to your model and protection level – everything else is identical across all four configurations.
All materials certified to VPAM-PM 4 or VPAM-PM 6 – ballistic glass, ballistic steel and special composite materials, integrated without altering the exterior appearance.
The one structural difference
The rear section is protected by a ballistic partition wall behind the rear seats, with an integrated ballistic glass window preserving rear visibility. Tailgate and rear glass remain factory standard – the spare wheel stays in its original position.
The 130 protects the full cargo area instead: tailgate and tailgate glass are ballistic, the side cargo glass is covered internally with opaque ballistic material and finished with OEM fabric trim – externally indistinguishable, with dark tinted glass.
Seating & payload
Maximum seating capacity depends on base vehicle configuration, protection level and any optional security features. The payload is reduced by approximately 330 kg for Level 6 and 220 kg for Level 4 – for the standard protection package without optional equipment.
Optional A-KIP® Security Features
Beyond the standard package, each A-KIP® Defender can be equipped with optional security systems – integrated in-house, operated via the systems control panel, finished in OEM quality.
Configuring – Change selection
Systems control panel
In the event of fire breaking out in the engine bay, deployment is automatically regulated – with the option of a manual start sequence via the systems control panel inside the vehicle.
Protects the occupants against flying fragments caused by a blast from underneath the vehicle – designed to withstand two (2) simultaneously detonated DM51 hand grenades placed under the vehicle floor. Each DM51 carries a 60 g Nitropenta charge and around 6,500 steel fragments of 2–2.3 mm.
A self-sealing, flame-resistant coating seals the tank in the event of penetration – preventing fire and further loss of fuel. Tested and approved by an independent laboratory.
Diesel vehicles
For diesel-powered vehicles: additional fragmentation and ballistic protection to avoid rupture of the AdBlue tank.
Added security preventing potential systems failure caused by ECU damage from fragmentation or ballistic projectiles.
Defender 130 only
An internal tailgate release handle enables escape via the rear of the vehicle in an emergency. Exclusive to the Defender 130.
Systems control panel
Allows the occupants to communicate with anyone outside without opening doors or windows. Operated via the systems control panel inside the vehicle.
Systems control panel
Emergency blue light package with country-specific siren – LED strobes integrated discreetly into the front grille, operated via the systems control panel inside the vehicle.
Alternative door frame trim, finished and covered in the same OEM fabric as the door top roll.
Due to the increased weight of the ballistic glass, special heavy-duty window lifter systems are available for each door window – individually selectable. The window can be partially lowered to hand out or retrieve documents; for conversation, combine with the intercom system.
Dark tinted glass for enhanced privacy and UV protection, matched to the OEM cargo glass – available in different tint levels.
Defender 130 only
A secured stowage point in the cargo area accommodates the original OEM spare wheel with cover – for missions where a full spare is required. Exclusive to the Defender 130.
For vehicles intended for registration in the European Union and rest of world: all technical requirements, documentation and technical examination by an authorized body (TÜV single vehicle approval). For the United Kingdom, DVSA Individual Vehicle Approval Category T (armored vehicles) applies.
Discreet by design
A single “Protected by TRASCO” plaque is all that distinguishes an A-KIP® Defender from the series vehicle. Your configuration travels with you into the inquiry – non-binding.
