CaliforniaConservative Posted July 22, 2020 Share #1 Posted July 22, 2020 I just picked up one of these helmets off of ebay for a steal, and it seems that this is the Navy's latest ballistic helmet, essentially a modified ACH design produced by Gentex in an XL size, but designated by them as "universal" fit. In the attached image, the left is a high cut ACH, the right is the Phonetalker III. As demonstrated by another member here, the Phonetalker III will accept Ops Core ARC rails and therefore is probably compatible with ACH upgrade harnesses.

RedLegGI Posted July 28, 2020 Share #2 Posted July 28, 2020 Nice pickup. The phonetalker lids I don't ever come across in the wild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliforniaConservative Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted July 29, 2020 I weighed it on my very inaccurate kitchen scale, with zorbium pads and the stock strap it comes out to 3 pounds, 9 oz. Certainly no Ops Core FAST, but it's on par with other current standard issue helmets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
