Ballistic helmets

Military tactical helmet buy Ukraine - Varieties and features

A tactical helmet is an important part of the protection of military personnel and special forces. Their main purpose is to protect the head from debris, bullets and other dangers on the battlefield. However, in addition to protection, a modern tactical helmet also provides comfort and allows you to integrate additional equipment that is necessary in modern conditions of combat operations. In the Kiborg store you can find various types of ballistic helmets, among which the popular ones are PASGT, MICH and FAST.

PASGT is a classic version of military protection

PASGT helmets, or Personnel Armor System for Ground Troops, were developed in the 1970s to replace outdated military helmets. Their main advantage was the revolutionary material - Kevlar, which provided a significantly higher level of protection. Lightweight and durable, they became the standard for the US Army in the 1980s and were used until the early 2000s, when they were replaced by new models.

Modern versions of PASGT helmets are often equipped with additional elements, such as new suspension systems and damping pads, which increase wearing comfort. This makes them popular among the armies of various countries, where PASGTs continue to be used in a modernized form.

MICH — a universal solution for modern militaries

MICH helmets (Modular Integrated Communications Helmet) appeared as an improved version of the PASGT, and they quickly became popular due to their improved characteristics. MICH have a more convenient design that allows for easy integration of headsets and other modern communication equipment. They are also more ergonomic, making them more comfortable to wear for long periods of time.

Although MICH helmets have a smaller protection area compared to PASGT, they compensate for this with increased impact resistance and the ability to install additional accessories. The advanced version of the ACH (Advanced Combat Helmet) helmet uses special rails for attaching a variety of equipment, including lights and cameras.

FAST — a modern military helmet for special operations

FAST (Future Assault Shell Technology) is the most advanced type of ballistic helmet designed for special operations forces and law enforcement. These helmets are distinguished by their characteristic large cutouts in the ear area, which allows for the easy use of headphones or headsets. FAST helmets are also equipped with mounts for installing various tactical devices, such as cameras or night vision devices.

FAST is known for its optimized shape, which provides better weight distribution and increased stability when integrated with helmet equipment. By reducing the protection area in the side parts, FAST helmets have increased protection of the back of the head, which is especially important in combat conditions.

Assortment of military helmets in the Kiborg store

The Kiborg store offers a large selection of tactical helmets that differ not only in their protective characteristics, but also in color solutions. You can purchase helmets in the following colors:

• Coyote is great for terrain with sandy or desert conditions. The coyote color camouflages soldiers well in deserts and dry forests.

• Olive is a classic military color that is suitable for operations in wooded and green areas. It blends in perfectly with the natural environment.

• Cartoon is a camouflage that adapts to different terrain conditions. Multicam provides a universal level of camouflage in different climatic zones.

• Black - more often used by police units and special forces. Black is suitable for urban operations or night missions, when you need to stand out as little as possible.

The color of the helmet should be chosen depending on the specifics of the tasks performed and the type of terrain in which the serviceman will operate.

Ready-made tactical helmet kits at Kiborg

The Kiborg store catalog also has ready-made tactical helmet kits that include all the necessary elements for the effective performance of combat missions. 

These kits greatly facilitate the selection process, since each component is selected for maximum convenience and functionality.

How to choose the right helmet size

Before buying a military helmet at the Kiborg store, it is important to correctly determine its size. To do this, use a measuring tape, wrapping it tightly around the head above the eyebrows and ears. If the resulting number is odd, it is recommended to choose a military helmet one size larger.

Here is a size chart for helmets:

• 52 cm and less = S

• 53-56 cm = M

• 56-59 cm = L

• 59-62 cm = XL

• 62-64.5 cm = XXL

The correct size ensures comfort during prolonged wear, and also minimizes the risk of injuries due to a helmet that is not tight enough or too tight.

Additional accessories and features

In addition to standard helmets, you will also find a wide selection of additional accessories in the Kiborg store. These can be:

• Camera mounts that allow you to capture video footage during operations.

• Rails for additional equipment that simplify the installation of night vision devices, flashlights or headsets.

• Damping pads that add comfort during prolonged wearing of the helmet.

• Helmet systems that help integrate a ballistic helmet with various types of tactical equipment.

Such accessories allow you to personalize a tactical helmet according to specific tasks and make its maximum functionality.

The importance of certification and durability of materials

When buying a military helmet, it is important to pay attention not only to its price, but also to certification and durability. Manufacturers often indicate the shelf life of their products depending on the materials used. For example, aramid and polyethylene have approximately the same shelf life, but if there is serious damage to the surface of the helmet, its protective properties may be impaired.

Pay attention to whether the helmet is certified in accordance with international standards, and regularly check its condition to ensure reliable protection on the battlefield.

The Kiborg store offers a large selection of tactical and ballistic helmets that provide reliable protection and meet high quality standards. You can choose both a separate helmet and ready-made kits that include headphones, mounts and other necessary equipment.
