Military helmets are one of the most important elements of equipment designed for individual protection of a soldier. The main purpose of such gear is to provide protection against bullets, shot energy, fragments, and secondary damaging factors. Modern helmets presented by Wroom are not only about protection, but also about comfort and the ability to wear them for long periods without pain.
Characteristics of military helmets
A military helmet is a type of protective equipment with unique properties and features that ensure an increased level of protection for the user and guarantee safety from injuries.
A protective military helmet has the following characteristics:
- Ballistic protection level: the most important parameter of a helmet, which must comply with Ukrainian DSTU standards that determine the protection classes of military helmets and body armor.
- Weight: the optimal weight of modern helmets ranges from 1 kg to 2 kg, depending on the helmet material and additional components mounted on it.
- Shock absorption system: consists of internal pads and a suspension system that absorb impacts, ensure comfort during use, and provide proper size adjustment.
- Ergonomics: modern helmets feature comfortable mounts, headset integration options, and rails for accessories.
Please note that a military helmet must have increased resistance to external factors. This gear should be purchased with consideration of protection from moisture, sunlight, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical damage.
Classes of military helmets
In Ukraine, protection classes of military helmets are regulated by DSTU В 4103-2002 — a national standard harmonized with the Soviet classification system and oriented toward NIJ (National Institute of Justice, USA) in the international context.
Our store offers helmets of protection class 1 (or IIIA under the international classification) — the most popular choice among servicemen.
They provide excellent protection against fragments and handgun threats while maintaining a lightweight design, which is especially important for prolonged wear and active field operations.
What to pay attention to when choosing a military helmet
Before purchasing a tactical military helmet, it is important to consider the material, weight, protection class, and design features that will help you pick the best option based on your needs.
Buy a military helmet considering the following nuances:
-
Material: Modern models are made from UHMWPE (ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene) — a material with excellent ballistic properties that significantly reduces helmet weight compared to traditional materials such as Kevlar or composites. This makes UHMWPE helmets ideal for long-term wear in the field without compromising protection.
-
Weight and balance: The helmet must be light enough to avoid fatigue and prevent strain on the neck.
-
Retention system: The suspension should be easy to adjust for different head sizes, and the chin strap must be reinforced and comfortable.
-
Padding and comfort: Check the quality of internal pads — they must be soft, dense, and easily removable.
-
Accessory compatibility: Important if you plan to use accessories like headsets, NVG devices, cameras, or flashlights.
-
Certification: The helmet must have a proper test protocol according to DSTU to guarantee servicemember safety.
-
Price: It should reflect the helmet’s level of quality and protection.
