What Kind of Bulletproof Helmets Are Available in Ki Ang?

Today's ballistic helmets have become an indispensable part of the safety equipment of some police agencies and the military. Its function is not limited to military aspects. Any organization or even individual that needs safety protection can also equip bulletproof helmets as needed. For example, SWAT units, riot police, and even patrol officers can be equipped with bulletproof helmets.

Ballistic helmets come in different levels of protection, and these levels are usually tested according to National Institute of Justice standards. NIJ protection levels are rated based on the level of bullets they can withstand. Generally speaking, levels III and IV can protect against ordinary rifle bullets; NIJ levels I to III can protect against various handgun bullets.

From a structural point of view, bulletproof helmets can be divided into three types: PASGT, FAST and MICH, which are mainly classified according to their height.

PASGT (Personnel Armor System for Ground Troops) usually has 19 independent layers of bullet protection and is designed to partially cover the wearer's ears.

MICH (The Modular Integrated Communications) is usually made of Kevlar and has level IIIA defense capabilities. The MICH helmet is specifically designed to withstand 9mm and 44 MAG bullets as well as blunt force attacks. It provides more room for the wearer's ears to use communication devices with. The original design included a brim and a lower ear cut. But later the hat brim and ear coverings were gradually removed.

The FAST (The Ops-Core Future Assault Shell Technology) helmet is also known as the fast combat helmet. The height of the ear-cut part is the highest among the three helmet types. Special forces usually choose to wear this helmet shape.

Having said that, many people think that bulletproof helmets are only used for bulletproof. In fact, in addition to a certain degree of bulletproof function, their main function is to resist the impact of fragments and other objects. This is very important for law enforcement and security personnel. Police and security services in particular are exposed to higher rates of impact weapons, projectiles and other head impact hazards. Therefore, for a bullet-proof helmet, its bullet-proof ability and impact-proof ability are equally important.
