US Army in Ramadi 2006 - they made us wear croch, nape, throat, neck protectors, side sapi, eye pro, sometimes shoulder armor. Literally ever piece of armor we could get our hands on. Walking around like space marines. Sharpel and mortar attacks were very very common we had to wear full armor anytime we were outside even on the FOB - even going to the gym or dfac or store.

This touches on a lot of MBT armor developments during the days of the first APFSDS darts being common, placing a harder more brittle layer or layers in front of traditional RHA helps to shatter or break up the tip of the projectile making subsequent regular armor layers significantly more effective. This is seen in modern MBT armor arrays with ceramic/titanium/tungsten rod/ball/mesh inserts layered between RHA layers. Much like in those developments, in the helmet development world you fight against the tradeoffs of increased size and weight such benefits offer.

It makes sense considering that armour arrays on tanks have been Metal/Non-metal composite arrays for decades at this point. As always the question is weight and it'd be interesting to see what combination of materials at a given thickness works. I could also see it being a thing that there is a reinforced band around the middle and lower with the top of the head left to Kevlar, kind of like those funky Indian turban-helmets. Or perhaps a "two cupped hands" arrangement where the front and sides are up-armoured and the top and back is left to Kevlar. I wonder if you could go Metal/Rubber/Metal/Kevlar.

Have you ever done a video on drop-testing armor?

I will now be investing in NVG mounts for all of my helmets despite not owning any NVGs

Makes me feel better about my solid block of mid 2000s aluminum known as a Wilcox G05

Any chance you'd consider adding cope cages to helmets and shooting them with various rifle rounds? An aluminum cage over helmet + thin hardened steel slats or wedges designed to split incoming rounds into lower velocity and lower weight shrapnel. The deflection angles could be calculated using the most likely impacts from a 90° angle to the strike face. So, basically a helmet covered in hardened steel blades arranged horizontally. Much like the SLAAP plate you've already tested, but not to catch the rounds and instead to cut the rounds into more smaller, more manageable pieces.

Do you think a wilcox g24 mount could have the potential to stop a direct headshot as well? I don’t know what the material difference is between the g24 and say a rhino mount as an example.

It also helps that the helmet is allowed to travel after it’s been hit.

0:43 There's a flaw in your logic. While you're right about the area on the helmet that took the hit would have missed the head if he wasn't wearing a helmet... However the flaw is because they were wearing a helmet the shooter has no way of knowing where the target's head is under the helmet. Meaning without the helmet the shooter knows where the target's head begins and ends, resulting in BOOM headshot. So without the helmet anyone that took a helmet strike on the crown or side then ummm, well at least they could cosplay as JFK.
