TYR Tactical has already introduced an accessory for their new Helmet Cover.
The 50/50 Battery Pouch is designed for use with ANVIS style night vision goggles and affixes to the rear of their new Helmet Cover for the Ops-Core maritime cut FAST helmet via Velcro.
With millions of ACH cut helmets produced, it’s only natural that FirstSpear would introduce a dedicated variant of their popular Hybrid Cover. It’s made from mesh and softshell two-way stretch with loop patches for IFF. It not only protects your helmet but also dampens helmet noise and shine. Available in Small – XLarge (same as the ACH) in Black, Coyote, Ranger Green, White and MultiCam.
TYR Tactical is cranking out new products and here are two of their latest.
The Light Weight Assaulters Pack – ARC (TYR-LAP-ARC) is a mid-size pack that can be utilized for everyday carry and/or adapted to the back of the existing armor systems. The pack also features 2” padded lumbar support and modular belt loop. The inside compartment features a small cargo pouch to accommodate various operator items with room for additional kit. TYR has incorporated their proprietary PV material in abrasion point to reduce weight yet offer the strength and durability of Aramids.
Main Pack: 20”H x 11”W x 6”D
Front Pocket: 17”H x 9”W x 3”D
Weight: 2.6lbs
They’ve also introduced a new Ballistic Helmet Cover (TYR-OCHC-V1) designed to fit, you guessed it, the FAST Maritime Ops-Core Helmet which is becoming more and more popular. The design is a combination of 500D Codura and mesh and leaves complete access to the night vision mount and rail accessories. Loop and wire routing points are positioned to allow the wearer flexibility for management of cables and IFF.
Sized Small/Medium, Medium/Large and Large/Extra Large.
We’ve shown you the Super Light Armor Applique Plate developed by Velocity Systems for the Ops-Core Ballistic FAST Helmet. However, there are far more Advanced Combat Helmets fielded. In fact, there’s an entire Army and Air Force worth out there. Early on in the development of the SLAAP, Velocity Systems produced a variant for the ACH’s geometry.
They produce blanks that are water jet cut to finish and using this process they can accommodate different NVG mounts/shrouds as well as rail systems. The model you see above is cut for a rail and NVG mount that takes up more vertical space than most others. Additionally, a Large/XLarge SLAAP weighs just a pound. Considering it will stop an AK round, that’s impressive.
SLAAP is THE answer to the rifle caliber threat.
SLAAP is economical. You purchase as much protection as you need. There’s no need to buy an entire new fleet of helmets that only stop an arbitrary threat. Both front and rear plates have been developed, and since they are easily attached to and detached from the helmet, SLAAP is scalable. You adapt to the threat and only use the amount of protection you need. SLAAP is effective. It defeats the threat you will see on the street; 7.62 x 39mm FMJ with mild steel core penetrator. Additionally, the technology is adaptable. Because it is a helmet accessory, new versions of SLAAP can be developed as new threats emerge.
Military or Law Enforcement, I encourage you to look at SLAAP if you are facing rifle caliber threats. Chances are very good that Velocity Systems has already built a model to fit your issue helmet. It is a major game changer for the ACH.
Elite Defense is offering the FirstSpear Hybrid Helmet Cover in an ACH cut. It’s offered in all of the color options and is a great choice for those using the ACH. Not only is it the standard for the the US Army and Air Force, but lots of LE agencies are starting to get the ACH and its making its way to foreign armies as well.
Kaos Kydex Solutions proposes this solution to that age old question, “How do I combine Kill Cliff and Ops-Core?”
