The newly launched second-generation Fast Response High-Cut (FRHC) Helmet is an upgraded version of its predecessor, refined based on extensive user feedback. It features a freshly designed padding system that significantly enhances wearing comfort. A reinforced, lightweight NVG mount ensures a stable, tilt-free fit when night vision devices are attached. Additionally, the helmet shell has been upgraded with advanced materials to withstand high-caliber handgun rounds better. The FRHC series continues the legacy of our classic helmets and is ideal for armed civilians, security personnel, and law enforcement officers.
