Batlskin Viper A3 Design

The Batlskin Viper A3 High Cut Ballistic Helmet features a low profile design for enhanced comfort and is compatible with all NVG's, CBRN Gear, and Communications Devices. It is tested for ballistic performance at temperatures from -40°F to 158°F. The Viper A3 comes with a standard issue suspension chin strap and moveable 0.75" (#6) pads for a custom fit.

Here are some things to consider when ordering a Ballistic Helmet. Will you be wearing COMs equipment in conjunction with your helmet? If so, you should measure your head for fit with the COMs headset on. If you are right on the fence between a "Medium" and a "Large" shell, we recommend going with the Large. Take it from us: your head will thank you.

Batlskin Viper A3 System

You should also consider what type of night vision mounting system you will be attaching to your Batlskin Viper A3 Full Cut Ballistic Helmet. There are two types: Standard One-Hole Mounts and Standard Three-Hole Mounts (MARSOC/ WARCOM pattern). You will want to order your helmet pre-drilled with the pattern required for your mount. We do not recommend drilling your helmet to attach a night vision mount. Not only do you risk drilling the holes in the wrong position, but you also compromise the sealant finish on your helmet. At the factory, the helmet shell is drilled before it is sprayed with the finish. This insures the holes are sealed. By drilling through this finish, you expose the Kevlar fibers to the elements. Moisture will get in there and cause the Kevlar layers to separate over time.
