This comprehensive review of the Russian Altyn helmet, presented by Garand Thumb, details its construction and ballistic performance. The helmet features a 3mm titanium shell with an aramid liner, rated for pistol and fragmentation threats. Testing reveals it stops 9mm and .44 Magnum rounds but fails against rifle calibers like 5.56x45mm and 7.62x39mm. Despite its robust construction for its intended role, its significant weight and lack of rifle protection are noted as drawbacks compared to modern alternatives.

This guide, drawing from the expertise of The VSO Gun Channel host, details the critical differences between high-end and budget tactical helmets. It emphasizes how factors like weight, suspension system, rail type (M-LOK vs. ARC), and fit directly impact the usability and effectiveness of expensive accessories like night vision devices. The host strongly advocates for investing in quality gear for optimal performance and safety.
