The T-98 Kombat is a wheeled armored vehicle built by Kombat Armouring, a subsidiary of Laura Group, in Saint Petersburg, Russia. There are two basic versions of the T-98 Kombat based on General Motors components, including an 8.1 liter Vortec engine, Allison transmission, and General Motors heavy duty suspensions. All running gear and electronics are provided by General Motors. The armored body is based on a ""metal-ceramic sandwich with cellular filler"" technology. The monocoque body provides protection against mine blasts. Kombat Armouring claims that the most highly armored T-98 will protect occupants from bullets up to 12.7 mm, shotguns, mines and ramming. A 340 hp V8 gives the lightest T-98 a top speed of 111 mph (180 km/h), making it one of the fastest all-terrain armored vehicles in the world. 23,949 miles, per owner.
