    Interestingly, I purchased 10 meters of genuine Mexican Marines Digital camouflage from a dealer in the US. How the material wound up where it did is a mystery, but the cloth is in my hands and I'm sure it's the real deal.

    WTF??

    To get back to the original topic ... I note the ballistic shell is in two parts as opposed to the one-part shell as seen on the US (and Aust.) DH-132 CVC helmets. Why is this?

    Is the liner the same as the US versions?

    Interesting helmet nonetheless ...

    Canada used both versions of the helmet... the one part and two part shells. I have no idea why, only that they were both issued.
