British Army Mk7 Helmet

British Army Mk 7 Helmet
Genuine ex-issue British army Mk 7 kevlar ballistic helmet. The helmet is manufactured by NP Aerospace and is reported to have an "almost unlimited service life" by the manufacturer. The Mark 7 helmet is the current general issue combat helmet of the British Armed Forces . Officially known as the GS (General Service) Mark 7 combat helmet, it replaced the previous Mark 6A helmet and Mk 6 helmet.

The new helmet offers the same ballistic protection as the Mk6A helmet, but its new shape allows a soldier to lie flat and shoot straight, without the rear rim digging into the body armour and tipping the front rim over their eyes.

The Mark 7 helmet weighs one kilogram, significantly less than its 1.5-kilogram predecessor. It also has better chin strapping for stability and is produced in a new colour tan

The army use covers to camouflage the helmet and adapt it to different environments.
All helmets are ex-issue and have been issued and used by serving personnel, hence they may have signs of wear scratches or marks.
