A bulletproof helmet is a single soldier's head protective equipment, mainly used to resist damage to the head from projectiles or fragments. Its core function is to protect the wearer from fatal injuries in the battlefield or high-risk environments. The structure usually consists of a helmet shell, suspension cushioning system and face mask, and is made of advanced materials such as polyethylene, titanium alloy and Kevlar fiber to improve protection while reducing weight; models such as Browning bulletproof helmets also integrate neck protective cape components to optimize wearing comfort and defensive range
Ballistic helmet standards refer to a series of specifications and test methods used to test and evaluate the protective performance of ballistic helmets to ensure that the helmet can effectively protect personnel from dangers such as gunfire. Currently widely used ballistic helmet standards include: 1.NIJ 0106.01 standard: Developed by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), it is divided into three levels. Helmets are tested differently according to their protection level. 2.EN 397 standard: Developed by the European Organization for Standardization (CEN), it is mainly used for industrial safety helmets and can also be used for testing bulletproof helmets. 3.PASGT standard: This is the US military's testing standard for MICH and ACH helmets to ensure that they can provide sufficient protection in combat. 4.STANAG 2920 Standard: Developed by NATO, it can be used to test face and head protection, including ballistic mask and helmet combinations. 5.Chinese Bulletproof Helmet Standard: A standard issued by my country’s National Security Industry Standardization Technical Committee to ensure the protective performance of bulletproof helmets for domestic military and police officers. In addition to the above commonly used bulletproof helmet standards, some regions and militaries will develop their own standards and testing methods to meet their specific protection needs. In addition to testing standards, the design and materials of ballistic helmets are also critical. They must be able to effectively absorb and disperse ballistic energy while minimizing the impact of the helmet on the wearer, such as weight, visibility and comfort. When purchasing and wearing a ballistic helmet, not only do you need to consider testing standards and design, but you also need to ensure that the helmet fits the size and shape of the wearer's head to ensure optimal protection.
