    British armed forces parachutist helmet ,note the RAF store's stock code ,mainly know as the instructor helmet ,i must add i've never seen any referance picture's to back up its use as an instructor's helmet ,it offers nothing other than bump protection , Also used by special forces "Halo pathfinder" ,perhaps allthough im not 100% certain used by the red devils in the not to distant past
    Also used by the RAF Falcons jump team, originally the big 6, all were instructors who used orange helmets of this type.
