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.
