Verify the effectiveness of your ballistic, mine or IED protection
With crash test dummies and high-speed video cameras mounted inside a vehicle to measure the activity, you’re able to monitor exactly what happens inside during impact or detonation. Our tests are comprehensive and well-documented, including pictures and data from a range of measurement systems.
At FMV T&E, we offer tailored threat options to meet your needs including different calibre weapons, rockets or IEDs, with the capacity to detonate charges up to 30,000 kg TNT equivalent. We can also provide full test management and perform tests according to standards such as AEP-55.
