Integrated Communications Helmet

The Integrated Communications Helmet is the main combat helmet of the Jeobseon Self-Defence Army. The helmet serves to provide protection, communications capability and a battlefield interface system for every individual soldier.

The helmet itself is constructed from a layered composition consisting of an outer layer of titanium-alumide alloy, a core of boron carbide resin bonded to a layer of graphite-composite carbon fibre and a woven tetsukawa liner. While offering little protection against direct hits from high-velocity or armour-piercing ammunition, the helmet can withstand hits from less powerful rounds, glancing blows and grenade or artillery fragments.

In addition to this, the helmet also has an integral air filtration unit and can be fully sealed for use in hostile environments. The helmet is also fully compatible with an eye-covering combat interface unit that provides the soldier with a real-time augmented reality information overlay similar to the Yamataian Marine Battlefield Interface. The entire face of the soldier can be protected from shrapnel behind the gas mask and the combat interface unit, and the use of both allows the entire helmet to be made airtight.

Communications capabilities are also provided, with strong radio and networking systems allowing every soldier to remain in contact with each other and their commanders at all times.
