ARMORED VEHICLE OPERATION IN HIGH-RISK ENVIRONMENTS LEVEL III

·       Weight Transfer and Aggravated Inertia: Effects of additional weight (800 to 1,800 kg extra) on acceleration, cornering trajectory, and braking distances (up to 40% longer).

·       Elevated Center of Gravity: Rollover mechanics; prevention of critical lean during sharp turns or evasive maneuvers.

·       Run-Flat Systems and Reinforced Wheels: Handling dynamics after total loss of pressure due to gunfire or tire deflation; maneuverability with collapsed tire on support ring.

·       Brake and Transmission Fatigue: Overheating management in braking systems (Brake Fade) and engine braking usage under demanding driving.

·       Armor Capability and Overlaps: Vulnerable points in door frames, ballistic glass, B/C pillars, and pedal area.

·       Visual Tunnel Effect from Ballistic Glass: Loss of depth perception and optical distortion of multi-layer armored glass; mirror adjustment and visibility.

·       Using the Armored Vehicle as Shield and Battering Ram: Methods to push heavy vehicles using V8/Diesel engine power coupled with armored mass.

·       Stay vs. Evacuate Procedures: Criteria to determine when armor offers protection (Safe Cabin) and when to evacuate unit.

Objective: Master deceleration and cornering control in heavy vehicles, preventing abrupt weight transfer that causes rollover or severe understeer.

·       Threshold Braking in Armored Vehicles: Emergency braking distance management without locking brakes or losing steering control.

·       Tactical Cornering with Heavy Load: Applying trajectories with progressive acceleration to keep center of gravity stable.

 Objective: Maintain directional control and perform basic evasive maneuvers using an armored vehicle with deflated or damaged tires.

·       Practice on Run-Flat Ring: Driving vehicle with zero air pressure in rear or front tires at speeds of 50 - 60 km/h.

·       Obstacle Evasion Adjusted for Armor: Rapid lane change adapted to slow response of reinforced suspension.

Objective: Leverage mass and structure of armored vehicle to cleanly displace barricades and heavy vehicles, clearing escape route.

·       Gradual Inertial Push (Pusher Technique): Contact without harsh impact followed by maximum acceleration to move heavy vehicles or crosswise SUVs.

·       Double Blockade Breaching: Selecting path of least resistance between two obstacles using front armor/bumper of unit.

Objective: Execute complete principal evacuation operation in an armored vehicle, facing coordinated ambushes, tire blowouts from spike strips or gunfire, and real-time road blockades.

Scenario Dynamics:

·       Phase 1 (Boarding and Tactical Inspection): Verification of armor condition, glass, and Run-Flat systems prior to transit.

·       Phase 2 (Attack and Route Blockade): Armored convoy enters "ambush zone" with simulated ballistic impacts/detonations. Vehicle blocks road.

·       Phase 3 (Heavy Push and Evasion): Driver applies Heavy RAM technique with armored unit to push barrier, while coordinating evasion despite tire pressure loss (Run-Flat).

Phase 4 (Debriefing/Hotwash): Evaluation of protected cabin integrity, extraction time, and mass handling effectiveness
