The M80 helmet was also used by the Iranians in the Iran - Iraq war during the 1980's
this elderly Iranian soldier wears a M80 helmet
Today I also received a M.90 and what I noticed straight away is that the the M90 seems much heavier then the South Korean produced M80.
Hi , yes the material is odd in that it does feel heavier, but at the same feels quite fragile, almost like a laminated plastic, I am curious as to know how these were manufactured, but have researched the subject and found very little concrete evidence.
Thanks for your input, and I would be keen to see your M90 when you get a chance to post it here.
really nice collection opex ,i especially like the m80/03 ,and with the cover too ,lucky guy , i know these helmets have the ballistic qualities of building site hard hat ,but theres something so darn addictive about collecting them ,no two helmets look alike when i say that i mean not the shell profile but the paint scheme thats remaining or just the general condition ,the saltier they are the better for me ,if you dont mind id like to share my two examples ,i have shown them before but heres a more recent pic ,the one of the left was identified as a recon unit of the republican guard oh and great referance pic BG i too wasnt aware the irainians wore them ,how confusing
