I'm not at all clear what the actual designation of these helmets is in Czech service, so I am simply using the topline information as shown here. What does seem the case, however, is that this label is at least in part a warranty-expiry notice, stating that the helmet can not be garuanteed after five years - in this case it ran from 2008 to the end of 2013. Which may explain why these helmets have been removed from service. |
Is this actually a genuine consistent difference between these two versions - the bolt heads of the early (left) and the later (right). |
