This helmet incorporates the COMBAT EDGE bladder kit (including a bladder, quick disconnect,
cover, and other items), high-speed visor kit (with friction-holding edgeroll cover), and anti-snag
receiver spacers for use in high-speed, high-G environments. The helmet also has pre-drilled
holes for the installation of night vision goggle (NVG) mounting brackets (for the banana bar)
and includes an XLiner for comfort and stability. In addition, it has a leather anti-scuff strip at the
top. This combination of features greatly reduces component installation time for the technician.
