As Terrorist Violence in Greece Explodes, Texas Armoring Increases Production to Meet European Security Demands
SAN ANTONIO, TX--(Marketwire - August 4, 2010) - Texas Armoring Corporation (TAC), the world leader in lightweight armored passenger vehicles, announced today that demand for bulletproof cars and security serviceshas skyrocketed as a result of massive violence, riots, and growing
terrorist threats throughout Greece.  TAC also announced that it has been
working with key executives and officials in Greece to help provide
comprehensive security solutions and offer armored personal vehicles to
help protect journalists, tourists, police, business owners, and VIPs
amidst the country's explosive economic climate.
TAC President and CEO Trent Kimball stated, "The current
security situation in Greece is out of control and our clients no longer
feel safe. Assassination and kidnapping-for-ransom attempts are on the
rise, and deplorable terrorist groups are openly attacking and
threatening hard-working, law-abiding citizens. Criminal groups like the
'sect of revolutionaries' need to understand that the people of Greece
will not simply hide in fear, and we will do our part to protect as many
civilians and civil servants as possible."
Kimball continued, "Terrorists may claim that Greece is 'no
longer a safe haven of capitalism,' but we intend to protect business
owners and capitalists at the highest levels. Our vehicles can defeat
multiple armor-piercing
rifle rounds at close range, which gives our clients time to get out of
a dangerous situation. While these terrorists may wish to turn Greece
into a 'warzone,' they should understand that part of war is defense --
and that just happens to be our area of expertise."
TAC, who has produced numerous bulletproof vehiclesfor actual warzones like Iraq, also  announced that it would be offering
advanced defensive options to help document attacks and aide clients in
escaping potential attackers. TAC executives mentioned that many
vehicles would be outfitted with self-sealing fuel tanks,
road-tack-dispensing systems, smoke screens, and electric shocking door
handles to help defend against assailants and that it would install
360-degree DVR camera surveillance systems along with advanced
night-vision cameras to help document hostile situations and give
clients a visual advantage while driving in the dark.
In addition to providing armored cars,
TAC also announced that it would dispatch teams of security personnel
and executive protection experts to Greece to provide close protection
services and offer security training to local agencies to help fight
terrorists and criminals.
Kimball added, "We're working with GROUND ZERO International
and security expert Dr. Mark D. Yates in an effort to offer a
full-fledged security solution to our clients. Dr. Yates holds numerous
instructor certifications in all aspects of special weapons and tactical
SWAT operations, law enforcement, close protection, security, military
and intelligence agency training and operations. He has personally
trained tens of thousands of military special forces, law enforcement
and security operatives on multiple continents. These terrorists want to
target unarmed Greek citizens, but we have the means and expertise to
teach our clients how to effectively protect and defend themselves in
nearly any hostile environment."
Kimball concluded,"Our goal is to protect those in need through advanced armoring materials
and a proprietary armoring process. We're in the business of
protection, and we'll continue to ramp up production to meet security
demands throughout the world."
