Made in Canada. So What's it like to drive a $700,000 Armoured Luxury Vehicle?

It's called the Conquest Knight XV and it's as badass as it gets for an armoured luxury vehicle. There are only 17 of its kind in the world, sold to the likes of those who can afford it - like Middle Eastern royalty - and a basketball star. 

It's twice as heavy as a Hummer, can stop a bullet from an AK-47 - and it's made by hand in Toronto, Canada. Even the windows that are 3.2 centimetres thick (enough to stop a bullet from an AK-47 of course), rolls down, which is apparently a rarity for bulletproof windows. 

So what is it like to drive in a Conquest Knight XV? Watch the video below to find out as CBC's Marivel Taruc takes the luxury Conquest Knight XV for a spin...

Sweden Invents a Revolutionary Anti Bullet Wall, Saab Barracuda Soft Armour

It appears those uber hard ceramic beads are free floating so when they get an impact they distribute the energy to all the other surrounding beads... or something like that...


Saab’s Soft Armour system offers protection against ballistic penetration up to NATO 7.62 mm AP ammunition (STANAG level III). The system is a box concept filled with hard ceramic balls. The system is especially designed to enhance survivability and can be fitted to any structure prior to missions, or even retrofitted to existing structures in operational theatre.
A unique ceramic material protects against ballistic penetration. Soft Armour is a patented ballistic protection technology that provides security for people in vulnerable environments. Soft Armour also protects critical equipment and facilities. Soft Armour protects against all small arms ammunition including armour piercing. The system has a lower total cost than ceramic and composite protection, with reusability, multi-hit capabilities and high flexibility.
