knight xv
The KNIGHT-XV is an armoured vehicle and not a vehicle that has been uparmoured. This means that unlike most vehicles that are uparmoured after-market, the KNIGHT XV is manufactured as an armoured vehicle from the ground up using top-grade armouring materials.
With its distinct size, extraordinary security features and ultra-luxurious interior appointments, the KNIGHT XV provides one of the most unique vehicle ownership experiences in today's SUV marketplace.
The innovative and incomparable KNIGHT XV takes approximately 4,000 hours to hand build with precision craftsmanship and attention to detail that one can expect from a vehicle of this caliber.
Length 240" (6096 mm) Width 92" (2337 mm) Ground clearance 14" (355 mm) Height 100" (2540 mm) The vehicle is built on a super duty specially modified F550 Ford chassis platform (making parts and service easily accessible globally).
Engine: Ford, V10, 6.8-litre gas engine with E-85 Ethanol Conversion system added, (referring to as Flex Fuel engine) Flexible fuel vehicles (FFVs) are designed to run on gasoline or a blend of up to 85% ethanol (E85). Diesel engine also available as an option.
Horsepower: 400 HP and 500 ft lbs. torque (approximately)
4 X 4: Electronic, push button 4WD
Transmission: 5- speed Torqshift automatic transmission
Brakes: Four-wheel disc anti-lock traction control
Wheelbase: 141" (3576 mm) GVWR: 19,500lbs (8,845.05 kg) Armored Curb Weight: 13,000 lbs. (5,896.7 kg.) approximately
Fuel tank: 63 gallons (US) (238 liters)
Air conditioning: Factory Air conditioning in-cabin
Tires: MPT Continental tire 335/80 R20 MPT81
Vehicle armor: The KNIGHT XV’s armouring level varies based each client’s specific requirements
The following is a list of standard features on a basic luxury version of the KNIGHT XV vehicle:
Interior Appointments
*** The PathfindIR Thermal imaging Camera offers dramatically better performance compared to traditional Night Vision Cameras.The FLIR Systems PathFindIR is a compact thermal imaging camera that significantly reduces the hazards of night time driving. This Automotive Night Vision Systems enable drivers to see much further, with improved clarity, than with standard headlights. Drivers can detect and monitor pedestrians, animals, or objects on or near the road, allowing more time to react to any potential danger. PathFindIR Thermal imager helps to detect and recognize potential hazards in total darkness, smoke, rain and snow.
FLIR PathFindIR is standard equipment on all Knight XV vehicles sold in North America
The KIGHT XV is built using ballistic hardened steel, making it fully armoured including ballistic fiberglass fenders, bumper and up to 64 mm. (2 and a 1/2 inches) transparent armour (glass).

Tires and Rims: 40" tires with specialized custom designed and engineered 20" rims that utilize forged 6061 aluminum - the same used on commercial aircraft landing gear. The outer flange was reinforced to exceed to four times the normal impact testing required for standard wheels. Coupled with its ballistic run flat tire system it creates the pinnacle of safety in tire and wheel system exceeding anything on the market today.

Ballistic penetration testing is in accordance with H.P. White Ballistic Laboratory Inc.'s Quality Control Standards .
Quality Statement: We record and maintain full armour material traceability. All testing of armour plate, transparencies and composites is conducted in accordance with the highest quality control standards. Tests are performed at a range of 5 metres, using factory ammunition that has been weighed prior to firing to ensure that it meets the required norms. The bullet is fired electronically through a military quality barrel with the projectile then passing through a chronograph beam to ensure that it meets the requirements of the ballistic testing standards. The armour-testing samples are maintained at an ambient temperature for 24 hours prior to testing. Samples are removed from each mill lot of armour plate prior to installation on a client's vehicle and are tested in accordance with the established norms. Upon satisfactory testing, a Certificate of Quality is issued for each sheet.
Armoured transparencies are purchased from various leading glass manufacturers. All glass meets various ballistic levels and is certified according to H.P. White's Quality Control Standards. Glass intended for a client's vehicle is inspected upon receipt and is compared to the test samples for confirmation of both lay-up and the optical zebra test. This inspection ensures the optical clarity of the glass. After confirmation of conformity, the client's glass is certified that it meets the required quality control standards.
Most armoured vehicle manufacturers claim that they only use certified armouring materials. Whilst this is commendable, unfortunately, it is just not good enough. Manufacturers of armoured vehicles should undertake testing in accordance with a quality-testing procedure similar to H.P. White's .
Standard and additional features included in the KNIGT XV's armouring package:
Transparent armour: The ballistic glass used in the KNIGHT XV is manufactured only by the leading manufacturers of ballistic transparencies. Our team of designers and engineers work closely with the manufacturers of ballistic transparencies to ensure that the glass module meets the protection and tint level required. In addition, we ensure that the glass meets the requirements of our overlap armouring technique when it is combined with the installation of the opaque armour.
Opaque armour: Only the highest quality high strength steel, ballistic aluminium, composites, aramid and ceramics are used in the manufacturing of the KNIGHT XV's opaque armour, to meet or exceed established norms.
Firewall (wall between engine and passenger compartment): The KNIGHT XV armour offers protected firewall where necessary.
Doors: Due to the added weight of the transparent and opaque armour in doors, the door hinges are reinforced using a proprietary system to completely avoid hinge failure and prevent sheet metal fatigue around the hinge system.
All of the armouring materials used on our KNIGHT XV vehicle have been certified by H.P. White Laboratory, Inc. (a highly regarded US independent ballistics testing laboratory).
