Manufacturer: Ops-Core (USA)
Type: Helmet
FAST Base Jump Military Helmet
This is a model step up from the previously discussed Ops-Core FAST Base Jump Sport Helmet. This was on order for a while and I finally recieved it last week.
The Ops-Core FAST Base Jump Military Helmet is a non ballistic protection, tactical helmet system. The Base Jump Military series weigh around 1.5 lbs and includes the following features:
- Integrated military style Head-Loc chinstrap Lightweight, multi-impact, ventilated liner with repositionable EPP impact pads and LDV closed-cell comfort foam that is not affected by temperature, altitude, or moisture
- 1/2" and 3/4" EPP pads come with the helmet
Occ-Dial adjustable fitband with replaceable leather front, nape, and side pads quickly detaches to allow convenient donning and doffing of COMMs headsets with internal top headbands
FAST-ARCs - 4 Position Accessory Rail Connectors: non-snag attachment points for quick yet secure donning or doffing of headborne accessories, including lights, cameras, goggles, COMMs, mandibles, etc
- Molded-in front mount to attach lights, cameras and NVG brackets
- Bungees for NVG stability
- Side Velcro loop for patches and illuminators
- Includes a Picatinny Adapter and Wing-Loc Adapter for the side rail and Universal Adapter for the front mount
FAST Base Jump Military Helmet
The NVG Mount is molded into the plastic shell and will accept US Army, Notoros AKA2 and Wilcox G24 NVG Arms. It will also accommodate Go Pro Helmet Cams, Princeton Remix Lights and other upcoming products. The Head-loc chinstrap system is easy to adjust and once adjusted, stays in place. This combined with the Occ-Dial Fitband which lets you dial in the head band pressure for a custom fit.
  
3/4" and 1" Internal pads are included and held in the helmet by specifically placed hook Velcro. Notice the channel between the pads at the crown of the head. This is to accommodate headsets.
The side rails will accommodate Ops-Core adapters. The helmet ships with 1 Picatinny and 1 Wing-Loc adapter. I have an additional Picatinny adapter and 1 set of Goggle Swivel Clamps. These adapters are all plastic. The Picatinny adapters need some adjustments to work with "slide on" type mounts (i.e. M3 Weapon Lights, Plastic Light Mounts, etc). They Picatinny adapters are not easily adjusted or removable after install, but the Wing-Lok adapters are made for gloved use and are much easier to operate when helmet is worn. Will report later on the Goggle Swivels. I have a new pair of ESS Goggle coming in just for these, due to having to cut and modify the strap to use.
