Who does the Brit MoD issue this helmet to?

[ShadowNeo]

I recently got hold of this british helmet, and I was wondering if anyone knew who/what it is issued for? I think it may be a Vehicle crewmans helmet?

SCALP - PROTECTIVE - LARGE

How'd you get hold of that?

Well, he killed a SAS-Soldier and took it.

That helmet really looks interesting.

Nah, he got it from some Green Slime, traded a pair of Northern Ireland gloves saying that the padded knuckles were a pouch that contained an E&E kit for the helmet.

Now, I'm just spouting **** from my mouth. :D

Nah, it looks like the LBA International Mach III helmet. LBA have a lot of the old RBR patents and molds.

when i saw it i thought tank\APC crew helmet because of the opening for head sets.
Or maybe it's for some new and fancy communication equipment.

I dont know, looks just like the CVCs we used, with all the com gear removed. But hell, looks like it would make a good climbing helmet too!!
