Government authorities in Belgium test the Defender A-KIP®

In early November, the TRASCO Defender A-KIP® had a special appointment: government authorities tested the vehicle on a military site in Belgium.

Lightweight protection, barely visible

The A-KIP® lightweight ballistic concept adds protection for the critical areas of the passenger compartment without sacrificing the comfort and performance of the base vehicle. From the outside, a Defender protected by TRASCO is virtually indistinguishable from a standard vehicle.

Not the first test by authorities

In June 2025, specialists of a German state authority had already put the Defender A-KIP® through a full day of testing at the DEKRA Lausitzring, on and off road. Read the test day report

As Jaguar Land Rover’s exclusive Accredited Converter, TRASCO offers the Defender 110 and 130 with the A-KIP® lightweight protection concept.
