A new fighter helmet already in use with the French Air Force is on display for the first time at Paris in Hall 4/ A4.

Elno designed its new helmet to be lighter yet compatible with European and American oxygen masks, night vision goggles and other devices, and suitable for combat aircraft and helicopters.

The helmet has a customised lining which holds it securely on the head, incorporates two protective visors providing a wide field of vision and an active noise reactor system integrated into the ear shell.

The protection level permits ejections at speeds of up to 600kt.
