So this is our new army combat helmet

well at least they don't have to worry about meeting their recruiting requirements.

So, Afromexican then.

It'll prolly work ok if someone was trying to konk you on the top of your head with a baseball bat.

That dude's ear holes are 100% too big, I can't unsee it.

You could say that it's a black hole. Get it?

I came here for discussing the helmet, why is the thread full of foreigners calling us "amerimutts"?

Fucking mods do your damn job.

To all noguns eurofags in this thread, just a reminder that your counties will be using these like 2 years after ours as per usual so better suck up those tears and shit and cum

lmao

They seriously used le 56% face... other than that I think the multi cam mohawk is pretty cool.

>Plastic buckle touching back neck skin
How did that get past the first evaluation?

I was kind of thinking it looked like that too.

Maybe they were going for a roman style instead of native?

Because we're all going to sleep, which means the Eurocucks think that it's alright to come out of their holes.

Is there a reason the back of the neck and head is almost completely exposed?

Don’t you know?
The US is going to be fighting in the ME until there isn’t a single drop of oil or a single poppy seed left there. They designed the helm to accomodate to that perpetual meaningless battle.

Jesus shit, that looks like fucking garbage. What was wrong with the old one?

The new generation of Americans has warped skulls due to genetic factors. This helmet design is meant to accommodate this new reality.

how many fucking times are they going to change helmets...

Modern US military hardware is literally ALL garbage dude. Everything from ACUs to F-35s is a malfunctioning overpriced piece of shit that only entered service because of a total lack of accountability in the Department of Defense and the massive corruption it enables.

How can you have a helmet in this day and age that leaves the open a direct path to your brain stem on three sides excluding the front?

So we went from the effective stalhelm design to the sub-standard Soviet ssh40 design. Is this cause of our move towards socialism?

But thats wrong as this new mk. 56 helmet has obvioudly less coverage than either

Helmets seem to be trending towards as little coverage as possible. Give it ten years, and 'helmets' will be a 2x2 cm patch of Kevlar sitting atop of the head secured with string.

The next gen is going to be a kevlar yarmulka.

Dios mios... la creatura

>implying americans have brains.

Fucking disgusting. We should have just stayed with the PASGT helmet shape, but made out of UHWMPE and with a 4 point chinstrap.

That doesnt change the fact the helmet itself is fuck ugly.
Please make better looking things, what happened to aesthetics?

you mean the LWH?

Technically it’s suppose to be part of this.

If I was promised and all I got was I would fire the whole team.

So how does it not have the interior lens fog-up? It isn't usable with gas masks and most likely only turret gunners would be the ones only using the face mask.

Not being sarcastic but how do you get a proper cheek weld

Yes, but with a different material so that it’s on par with the ECH in terms of ballistic protection.

It looks to be a thermal dual lense set up.
Designed for turret gunners.

I mean, if it works for Altyn's and Maska-1's it'll probably work for mandibles aswell

Faggit, that is from Revision from like 2017. Ceradyne is only supplier.

As someone who owns an ssh40, I can tell you this is far less coverage than it. The ssh40 comes very low on the brow and even lower in the back, and with excellent ear coverage, an arguably better shell than the stahlhelm.

Absolutely DISGUSTING

Both the design and the nigger

Makes you think.

The French have a similar one currently in service.

Why not just issue these instead?

It looks gay

I thought we were going with ECHs

no u
too expensive, and Gentex isnt interested in bribing the DoD enough. Ops core is great tho, can actually mount peltors to them so you dont have to tinitus for the rest of your life. Good fit, good shell, good components to put on. Sadly too good to put on the average private.

Yes, and it's beautiful.

Ratnik is just a copy of 2005-era US Army equipment

>""Our next-generation helmet -- the [Integrated] Head Protection System -- it has a 100 percent greater blunt impact protection over the ... Enhanced Combat Helmet," Lt. Col. Ginger Whitehead, product manager for Soldier Protective Equipment, said recently."

>"The new helmet -- made by Ceradyne Inc., a 3M company -- offers the same ballistic protection against rifle bullets as the ECH but doubles the amount of protection against blunt impact or trauma to a soldier's head, according to Alex DeGroot, lead engineer for head protection."

>"Overall, the helmet is "actually slightly bigger than the ECH, a slightly larger amount of area coverage," DeGroot said, but added that the base version of IHPS weighs a little less than the ECH. The ECH averages about 3.33 pounds in size large."

I dunno why, but somehow I'm having trouble with the helmet, it sounds good, but it sounds like something that hasnt been tested, but looked good on paper. I dunno, remains to be seen.

Imagine thinking Jow Forums is entirely for Americans

looking more and more like a stormtrooper helmet to me

Americans are basically the only ones allowed to talk about guns, let alone own them
Most english speaking countries have govt that do not allow for freedom of any sort, including visiting sites like 4chinz. And most non-american people posting are paid to be here, spreading bullshit misinfo and propaganda.

The Ops Core SF helmet isn't rifle rated like the ECH or new helmet

damn it's all pretty cool

>Macron and a negro
you think he fucked him after the pic was taken?

Jow Forums has been especially subverted any time us vs (name your eastern countries) military equipment gets discussed. It’s always a Chinese or Russian going “reeeeeee USA so bad omg I love sucking cock so much”

Those threads are blatant as fuck though, and they don't shit up legitimate threads with their fuckery.

The paid shills intentionally visit good threads to fuck them up. This is what happens when you ignore the threats to freedom and democracy at home.

Weird they're not putting WP tubes in them.
nah that's SFAB, the new Army experiment. Doesn't surprise me they're trying out fancy gear, considering their main job seems to be getting shot in the back by the Afghani army.

Yes, join the SFAB if your intention is eventually getting murdered by some coward in a green on blue attack. That's why they get all of gucci gear (Crye AVSs, etc), to lure the idiots in.

Because WP tubes are a gimmick and .mil knows it

Doesn't look nearly as dumb in those photos.

All that matters is if its more effective than the old helmet I guess.
