MKU - specific model unknown. dated 2008. This helmet is similar to the MKU shown immediately above - the shell and liner may be identical. The essential difference may simply be the chinstrap. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The liner is the same construction as the model above, most elements being held together with velcro. The net liner can be peeled open as shown in the previous entry. |
|
|
Note different chinstrap; a split chinpiece and no plastic chincup, and a completely different catch, a slab-type slide-in clip similar to that used on the Polish wz.2005 |
This model is tagged as 'Black' on the label, but this abrasion mark indicates it may actually be a black paint over a green moulding. |

Details of chinstrap catch/ |
|
|
|
|
|
The chinstrap clip has an unusual leather covering, probably essential for comfort as it lies on the cheek of the wearer. The cover is held closed with velcro strips (see three photographs above). The catch is not at all easy to release without undoing the leather cover first. This may be a design flaw. |
