Uniform Rifle Protection. Setting an industry standard, the Kavro Doma 360 uniformly protects against threats like the AK-47 MSC, M80 NATO BALL, and M193 rifle bullets across five zones of the head without the need for additional armor.

Boltless Design. Innovating with a boltless shell, this helmet provides 40 percent more coverage area against AK-47 assault rifles than standard helmets, eliminating the risks associated with rounds penetrating the skull upon impact.

<20mm Back Face Signature. An unprecedented achievement, the helmet maintains a Back Face Signature/Trauma of less than 20mm against high-energy AK-47 bullets, minimizing the risk of head trauma.

Advanced Impact Protection. Engineered with a harness system incorporating Dynamic Impact Technology, the helmet mitigates both linear and rotational/angular impacts, reducing the potential for concussions or brain injuries.

Maximum Compatibility. Weighing at 1.45 kgs (a smidge over 3 lbs.) for HCH Small, the helmet seamlessly integrates with various head-mounted devices and combat equipment, enhancing its versatility and utility.
