SANDF -- Kevlar Combat Helmet with Brown Cover with chin strap
History note
The South African Defence Forces (SADF) had earlier used traditional steel helmet for personal protection but began to use the more modern type of composition fibre helmets when they adopted the Israeli 'export' helmet in the early 1980s. Developing their own composition helmet, the SADF were equipped with the M87, a form of protective headwear which closely resembles the US pattern of Kevlar helmet. The cover is unique to South Africa, having an unusual drop-down peak for use as an eye shade.
