While many SWAT vehicles are bulletproof, some are not. Typically, a SWAT vehicle is used by non-military units, such as local police, to respond to criminal threats. Most traditional SWAT vehicles are designed for combat and built to handle fire. However, SWAT units can also employ non-descript, unarmored vans, or SUVs in order to conduct undercover operations. Armored SWAT vehicles are generally fabricated from high-quality, bulletproof materials that are designed to protect the people inside the unit. These rescue vehicles are engineered with flexibility and tactical advantages in mind. SWAT vehicles are often custom-made for military agencies, law enforcement agencies, emergency response teams, or special assignment units. Many vehicles come with a range of additional options and capabilities, including remote weapons control systems, riot control capabilities, fire detection, chemical attack protection, and more.
