The PASGT (Personal Armor System Ground Troops) helmet
was developed by the U.S. Army's research lab in the 1970's to address the inadequate protection and other problems of the conventional steel helmet. MKU PASGT Helmet is an
adaptation of the standard US Military PASGT Helmet with unique protection properties. The shell is constructed using superior aramid composites which are layered and bonded with impregnated resin for exceptional ballistic and fragmentation protection.
The MKU PASGT Helmets are lightweight and employ the
latest processes and material advances. They provide optimal
protection, comfort and insulation for all situations and
weather conditions. They adequately exceed fitting, suspension and ventilation factors as specified by armies worldwide and are capable of offering protections of upto NIJ Level IIIA & a V50 of over 650 m/sec (against 17 grain fragment).
