Agreed. In the government we refer to civilian armored vehicles as level 3 and level 4. Which is security and security plus. The level 3 vehicles we ride in have windows that roll down, but we still avoid opening the windows since it doesn’t function well. The level 4 windows are 2 inches or so in thickness and weigh over 50 pounds so no way in hell theyre opening and closing. Usually if you’re in an armored vehicle, opening the window will break the seal causing the vehicle to lose structural integrity. Also, opening the window in an armored vehicle defeats he purpose entirely.
I’ve only been in armored land cruisers and armored Toyota Hilux’s (Tacoma’s).
