The main question is, why is this necessary? Think about it, and now downvote or maybe not?

All this to prevent DC cops from dragging him out of the car. We need more than body cameras, America.

Can it protect against the false steel-melting ability of jet fuel?

Is it nuke proof?

Andrewmoo

Don't forget the decoy Beast.

They finally got it right since JFK

And Dublin roads incapacitated it up

I went to a police camp as a kid and the secret service brought in one of their SUV's, and the tires are actually solid rubber.

It also has two unlabeled and easy to mix up buttons: one causes an oil slick behind the car to stop followers, the other is an ejector seat
ri59
Oil slick? What about the bullets in front or spiked spinners coming out the wheel caps?
Biccolo
Lol at least wait a week to repost man XD

I was new to me! I didn't know, I promise!

Typical American overreaction: shoot one president in an open top convertible, respond by building a tank on wheels...
Noratek
If you shoot him in there next step is an aircraft carrier on wheels with wings
MarioBoon
don't give 'm any ideas!
ResearchTurtleSoup
they carry blood around for him at all times? wait, is obama a vampire?
ZukoRen
Have we ever seen him eating garlic?

They do more than that. The presidential DNA is protected. So if the prez does the doo in a public toilet, a staffer has to collect it. (1)
DougForcett
This is to ensure that no foreign govts get access to his DNA profile. Source: friend of mine was WHCA. (2)

Probably a good policy since Reagan's near bleed out cos John Hinckley

This actually looks like a good show. lol.

Spoiler alert: This is near the end of the first episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTG5p4wEAAM

It's phenomenal. Gets weaker in seasons 4-7, but Seasons 1-3 Are some of the finest hours of TV ever created.
ImActuallySyrup
I don't get all the armor and bullet proof glass, i mean if Obama was going to shoot someone he would have done it by now.
LurkMasterP
If he does a drive-by on Trump I'll give everyone a dollar.

Bravo sir

Shit, I didn't want to laugh at that. +1

This needs to be top comment. It NEEDS to be.

Not because I want any of President to get hurt, but I do wonder how it would fare against an IED, Iraqi style.
jake106
Damn I'm making a lot of typos this morning. I don't want any of our Presidents to get hurt, is what I meant.
ImActuallySyrup
I could be wrong, but i believe this this is supposed to be able to take an IED or a lot of other explosives and keep anyone inside alive.
Dsoir
Older version was sold to the president of Georgia (country) a while back. Survived a direct hit by a RPG
jake106
I would assume so. I know we reached a point where it was impossible to add any more armor to our vehicles over there and still be 1/?
jake106
tactical with them, but obviously that isn't the concern with the President's vehicle.
imaginedear
Isn't the I for Improvised which makes me think this sophisticated of a vehicle could probably withstand anything that can be improvised
jake106
Improvised included 155 mm artillery rounds. Those things will tear through armor like a knife through butter.
imaginedear
An 8 inch armored door and steel plate? I was saying IED couldn't be powerful just that the Beast was more so. but hey I don't know.
