I think the military is VERY INTERESTED in Borks kryron helmets.
Much simpler process and easier to make.
Since Ceradyne failed their "products" test.
:
"""The top general at Marine Corps Systems Command told lawmakers March 17 that a new combat helmet designed to stop some high-caliber rifle rounds failed to meet specifications during recent ballistic tests.
Brigadier Gen. Frank Kelley told members of the House Armed Services Committee's Air and Land Forces panel that engineers conducting so-called "first article tests" of the Enhanced Combat Helmet have "noticed … some different performance that we noticed in [developmental testing]."
....
But an informed source tells Military.com that some of the test helmets failed to properly stop 9mm pistol rounds.
While there were no full penetrations of the ECH, some 9mm shots resulted in a so-called "back face deformation" beyond what the specs allow.
The source believes Ceradyne "took shortcuts" and is "screwing up" the ECH program."""
