Ukrainian militants claim that the Canadian Senator armored car withstood the rupture of the Russian NURS a meter from the car

For the first time, the network has shown footage testifying to the baptism of fire in Ukraine of the Senator armored car.

This machine has been manufactured in Canada by Roshel since 2018. This little-known enterprise is located in Ontario. After the start of the special operation, it increased by 10 times due to the labor of immigrants from the independent (in two shifts, seven days a week) production of armored vehicles, previously supplied mainly to security services and law enforcement agencies of the United States and other Western countries.

As stated, the first 100 vehicles are already in operation in the Armed Forces of Ukraine (8 supplied by Canada, the rest were purchased by other countries and individuals), several hundred more are on the way. According to the manufacturer, his company is able to produce two cars daily.

Senator is not intended for combat operations on the front line and is used to transport Ukrainian troops, evacuate the wounded, and deliver goods.

- indicated in the publication Global News.

I don't know of cases when one of my friends or Ukrainian soldiers died in this car. So it provides good protection.

- said one of the neo-Nazis of the terrorist "Kraken" [banned in the Russian Federation].

According to the militants, the Senator withstood the explosion a meter from the car launched from the BM-21 "Grad" NURS. Tires were damaged, but ballistic glass and steel withstood the impact. It is claimed that no one was hurt.

According to the militants, the car also withstood close explosions of artillery shells: the windshield was damaged, and the armored car remained operational. According to them, the Canadian product has the same protection class as the Russian Tiger, "but the Senator armor withstands more severe impacts."

As the manufacturer explains, a very large percentage of localization has been achieved with the release of Senator. The company independently carries out product development, metal fabrication, milling, machining and turning, sewing, painting, sandblasting. The basis of the armored car is the F550 chassis from Ford.

After producing more than 200 Senators this year, the company plans to produce at least 1000 units in 2023, which are mainly addressed to the APU.

It is worth noting that all this information is exclusively from the words of the militants themselves, who, of course, benefit from presenting the Canadian supply of armored vehicles in a favorable light. At what real distance the ammunition fired from the MLRS was detonated, it is not possible to check in this situation.

Where there is a funnel, a variant of accumulated damage is possible, advertising is the engine of trade.

Although from the conversation of Bandera you can hear somewhere meters from the car. Ah, that's the distance. "somewhere" understand as you want

Usually such even small holes (without a single large fragment from NURS) resemble a hunting shot on a road sign, after a liter of drunk

[dmi.pris1]

It was possible to brag about a car made on the vna. But to brag about what was produced halfway across the world ?? ... Freeloaders, miserable poverty

formerly supplied primarily to U.S. security and law enforcement agencies

As a former editorial worker of the magazine "Private Investigation, Protection, Security", I will clarify:
The requirements for an armored car for the police and cash collection have nothing to do with the army. A police armored car should only save the life of the crew during the shelling or detonation of non-fragmentation weak charges on the road, and protect them from disability. It is not required to continue moving after the shelling, you need to wait for help so as not to disturb the picture of the scene for the investigation. There are also no requirements for maintaining the combat capability of the crew, colleagues will come, get them, give them to the ambulance, take them away, and cure them. On the other hand, there are requirements for the "non-spillability" of collectors from an armored box without a heavy metal-cutting tool, and for the fact that when opened with a gas cutter or undermining, the valuables are destroyed and do not go to thieves. This is also an element of protection - no one will "clog" the collection car in order to trophy coal instead of money.
The requirements of the military are strictly the opposite - in the event of shelling or undermining, maintain combat capability and continue moving. And if the crew is shell-shocked, anyone should easily open the door, pull out the wounded and provide assistance.

When a nurse gets into an armored car, only wheels go further and why do they open and close the doors so quickly? Does it stink?

[DIM (a)]

Some very small fragments and not enough of them to undermine the NURS BM-21 ... VOG-25 apparently, but it was also scary apparently, but fear had EYES!

[Leshak]

And if it had exploded five meters away, then the wheels would have been intact. They want more supplies, so they praise it.

[Paragraph]

It is necessary to aim more precisely, and it will cease to withstand.

Ukrainian militants .. mdaa, this is a "reliable" source! not engaged

[Lena Petrova]

The thing is different - auto-equipment is supplied and produced (and 2 pieces a day, by some small office - quite well). It is clear that it will not protect against ATGMs, but for movement, with protection against 7, 62 and shrapnel, it is quite suitable. Anything is better than driving a simple Niva.

[Vyacheslav57]

Urgently arrange a meeting with the Lancet. Now, if this car continues to go, then the advertising will be even better.

[sabakina]

It seems to me that NURS and BM-21 still have different calibers ...

[Bulgarian]

Someone made good money on this ad. Very Ukrainian

No, not in meters! There would have been tangential scratches and torn elongated holes, in addition, there would have been a deformation of the indentation of the planes from the pressure of the blast wave, and most likely the car would have turned over at all. And here the holes are all at 90 degrees to the plane, which means they flew from afar, so it doesn’t count!

[Viktor fm]

Judging by the sound of the slamming door, it's a tin can.

[Ulan.1812]

Yeah, and withstood a direct hit from a nuclear warhead. We believe.

[Ryaruav]

it looks more like a bullet, and fragmentation should be of different sizes, unless of course it’s a warhead with ready-made striking elements, so it is designed to destroy the enemy’s open manpower

[Alf]

I don't know of cases when one of my friends or Ukrainian soldiers died in this car. So it provides good protection.

An interesting train of thought - If I don’t know this, then this can’t be ...

[agond]

What kind of explosion was it, a small dent on the door, but it opens and closes freely like a new car.

[APASUS]

The NURS hit was a meter away and did not cause serious damage to the armored car - I believe it. A shell hit from Grad BM-21 - I don’t believe it. Too different charges and the system of fragments is different, it would have been flashed through by Grad

[Evrepid]

driven ... there is no direct hit, but fairy tales about what exploded in a meter .... so I can tell you that I flew to the moon and talked to sleepwalkers
