Description:
The Highcom Striker RCH (Arditi) Enhanced Combat Helmet is a Level III+ Rifle Rated High Cut Helmet.
The RCH (Arditi) far exceeds all current US Military and Civilian (NIJ) ballistics and impact standards, blowing the usual handgun threat protection requirements out of the water. 
The Highcom Striker RCH is comprised of 100% DSM Dyneema Polyethelene and is manufactured using XTclave™  a cutting edge composite curing and high-pressure consolidation technology. 
This combination of materials and manufacturing technique allows for the creation of a lightweight rifle threat helmet, capable of withstanding up to .308 M80 ball, 5.56 M193 and 7.62x39 MSC.
 
While the idea of a rifle threat helmet may seem far fetched or impossible, this technology has been present for many years and has matured.
In fact the US Army is currently in the process of phasing out handgun/ fragmentation rated helmets in exchange for rifle rated helmets like these.
The materials used in these helmets are the same materials used in some higher end Lightweight Polyethelene rifle threat armor plates. 
The XTclave™ is a type of autoclave that cures materials using extreme heat and pressure. 
This combination of materials and curing process is what allows for this helmet to stop rifle rounds without severe cranial blunt force trauma.
 
The Highcom RCH Rifle Rated helmet was developed with the US Army, it is designed to stop rifle rounds with survivable injuries.
A common misconception is rifle rated helmets will leave the wearer in a vegetative state if struck, this is simply not true for properly made rifle threat helmets. 
Rifle rated helmets such as these use higher end materials and more of it, being struck by a rifle while wearing the RCH will be equivalent to being struck by .44 Magnum for a IIIA handgun rated helmet. 
 
While this RCH helmet does not come with rails, night vision shrouds or velcro, we do have a version (HERE) that does. 
Our Loaded version comes default with must have upgrades and accessories such as ARC rails for mounting ear protection or lights, an adjustable 4 point harness, D3O Stealth Impact Pads, Wilcox L4 3 Hole Shroud for mounting night vision or cameras and Velcro for identification patches.
 
About Highcom:
Highcom is one of the largest domestic manufacturers and one of only a handful of US armor companies who fully manufacture their plates in house and heat press their own backers. 
They are also one of the only companies with their own In House Ballistic Testing Laboratory (See Here), which allows them to perform ballistic tests on every single batch of armor before being shipped to end users. 
Highcom was established in 1997 and has been making armor for over 25 years, they were one of the first US manufacturers to sell ceramic level 4s to civilians.
Highcom currently has 17 hard and soft armor models active on the NIJ Certified Products List. 
Highcom is a lesser known company due to the fact they are primarily a government/ military supplier.
