Once successfully tested and certified the build specification of a vehicle is set in stone; any variation to armoring materials, tolerances or construction methods during the line-production which follows, will render IABG certification null and void. An international independent body engaged to randomly inspect firms claiming line-production of certified vehicles does not exist.

In short, the industry is almost totally unregulated. Buyer beware therefore that many products being offered may not be manufactured quite as advertised.

At ASC we are not in the smoke and mirror business and consider that seeing is believing!
