you are charged with creating a armored car like the days of old.

what production car/truck available today would you choose?

what modifications would you make? how would you armor it and what armament would you go with?

2008 toyota hilux...put sloped armor all over it...add kevlar 3 inside all the doors. have most of it armored much like OPs pic..add some small interior fans to the passenger cabin and to the engine...have those vent out to discrete areas. weapons i would rig up a twin linked 50 cal and some launchers that could fire either smoke grenades or flares

Congratulations you just shreked the drivetrain, brakes and suspension.

If it was for off road use I would take a Toyota Tundra with AWD, rate it against .50BMG whilst stripping out all other things to compensate for the weight.

Urban and highway it would have to be a duty chassis with plate and firing ports, an autocannon if possible.

You would rig 2X .50 BMG weapons, launchers, cover it in sloped plate and kevlar the doors until it resembled something like the OP picture.

Exactly, as they weren't covered in heavy plate that altered the ride, handling and performance of the vehicle.

>imagine what a country could do if they put some real money into a technical platform
Nothing, as purpose built vehicles are better for the job.

The British ran into this problem with the up armored Land Rovers for patrol usage. Same story with the Humvee, the French Peugeot attempts and every other go at this. You end up with something heavy, slow, over the limits of its design and it costs you more than buying something ready built.

Your only practical option is to take a truck chassis and build on it until you get something like pic related

Do what we did in the 70s and take a production van with a large diesel engine, place it on a V shaped chassis and 7.62 proof it.

Saxons were pretty neat for a rudimentary military policing vehicle.

Considering the weight of the superstructure is negligible in weight compared to the rated payload, I don't see how what you said makes any difference. Not to mention OPs pic is from WWI and has an engine with baby horsepower.

Considering that nearly 100% of the super structure of a lorry or truck is designed with dragging and impeding the wagon and not carrying it, it makes a massive fucking different to carrying it.
