Military Helmets

Without being too specific - the new ACH helmet is a much better helmet than the previous Kevlar helmet (the infamous K-pot). Yes, I also wore the steel helmet before it was replaced with the K-pot.

The ACH is much more comfortable with its padding system and the improved chin strap system keeps the helmet in place when you are firing from the prone position. I wore the new ACH daily for a year in Iraq and I am very glad I had the ACH versus the K-pot.

There is an upgraded chin strap system and pads that can be added to the older style Kevlar helmets to imptove their comfort.
