Description
Tactical Mich Helmet For Military
MICH stands for Modular Integrated Communications Helmet (MICH). It is a next-generation protective combat helmet made from non-toxic advanced aramid materials like Kevlar. Earlier helmets were heavier and then a need was felt to make lighter, more comfortable close-fitting helmets. These Kevlar helmets enable easy mounting of many accessories like night vision devices on the front side such as the AN/PVS-14 or AN/PVS-15. The MICH helmets being lighter in weight prevent unnecessary straining on neck and head, even after mounting of the accessories. Provision of easy mounting of accessories bypassed the need of and drilling of holes through Kevlar to affix night vision mounting brackets. The helmet features a higher cut at the back and sides and with no front peak.

Fits well on my big noggin, and is well made. Wish it came pre-drilled for a shroud though.

My department purchased 10 of these, never thought as firefighters we would need ballistic protection but here we are. Helmets fit great, and are of good quality. Their customer service was awesome in explaining the pros and cons of the different style of helmets.

If you’re in a situation where a bulletproof vest could save your life, a quality helmet that has undergone thorough testing and meets military or NIJ standards serves the same purpose. Hard Shell Helmet- MICH is one such design which is compatible with various accessories, light in weight and serves the purpose. I have used this helmet for extended periods of time and it proved to be really useful. Customer service is also good.
