FAST Helmet

Regular price $460.00

The FAST helmet ("Future Assault Shell Technology") is our top-of-the-line ballistic helmet, designed for use by modern tactical operators.  Compared to the PASGT and MICH helmets the sides are cut higher to reduce weight, improve situational awareness, and for compatibility with helmet mounted comm systems, while the back is slightly lower to improve rear protection and help balance the weight of attached accessories.  The FAST helmet also features an adjustable suspension system for an optimized individual fit.
