Additional vehicle armor delivered to Canada

April last year saw a strategic alliance formed between Canada's DEW Engineering and ArmorWorks of Chandler Arizona.

At that time Tim Dear, DEW President, said "The first of many projects we are focusing on is mine blast attenuating seats. They are not in themselves a panacea against Improvised Explosive Devices (IED), but when installed in the right vehicle with ballistic, fragment and blast overpressure protection, they are the final link to save lives."

ArmorWorks has announced the early completion and delivery of a production contract to deliver vehicle armor to Canadian special operations forces.

These are the same type of advanced armor protection provided by ArmorWorks that are currently used by U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.
