An EA-6B squadron worked with Suits USA, makers of commercial FR flight apparel to manufacture a NOMEX CWU-27/P equivalent flight suit in Viet Nam Tigerstripe. The long pole in this tent is printing on Nomex but TenCate has perfected a patented process to do just that. The stars aligned and here you go.

N-Vision Optics listened to operator complaints about the high profile of binocular systems in the up or stowed position. They use the latest, certified tubes and have created a completely new chassis that place the individual tubes closer to the helmet. Additionally, this means that the tubes can be used individually or in concert with one another. Additionally, it is a completely integrated system with battery and mount, all-in-one.

SOFIC – Team Wendy

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2012

20120523-101108.jpg

Team Wendy has unveiled their new tactical bump helmet. Leveraging over a decade of ski and sport helmet development, they have combined this with their Zorbium foam padding technology to develop this new helmet.

20120523-101333.jpg

20120523-102746.jpg

It features an entirely new suspension/padding system that minimizes the use of foam. Instead the energy is dissipated through a combination of a crown sling and buckling zones. In fact, this helmet’s liner technology was developed specifically in support of Natick’s Heads Up program.

20120523-101217.jpg

You may recognize the Boa Lacing System used to adjust the fit of this helmet. It’s a proven technology used in footwear that creates tensioning via a wire system.

20120523-101148.jpg

This helmet currently integrates a Wilcox NVG shroud but Team Wendy plans on working with industry to further improve integration. You will also note the rail system that utilizes a sliding lock mechanism to secure devices.

Look for these late Summer. For more info visit www.teamwendy.com
