The 6B47 Russian helmet, part of the Ratnik kit, is primarily designed for shrapnel and fragmentation protection, not rifle rounds. While it successfully stops handgun calibers like 9mm and .44 Magnum, the latter causes significant, potentially life-threatening backface deformation. As expected, it fails to stop common rifle rounds such as 5.45x39mm and 5.56x45mm, and high-velocity rounds like M855A1.
