PRODUCT FAQs
What can this helmet actually protect me from?
This helmet offers serious protection. It's engineered to stop rifle rounds from a 7.62x39mm weapon, like an AK-47. It also protects against handgun threats like a 9mm and a .44 Magnum.
Why is a lightweight helmet important?
A lighter helmet is more comfortable to wear for long periods. The Ops-Core FAST XR has a large shell that weighs only 1.72 lbs, which helps reduce strain on your neck and keeps you from getting tired during a long mission.
What does "high cut" mean?
"High cut" means the sides of the helmet are raised higher than on other helmet styles. This design makes it much more comfortable to wear communication headsets or hearing protection because they won't bump into the helmet's edge.
What are the rails on the side of the helmet for?
Those are PowerPath ARC Rails. They are a special mounting system that lets you easily attach gear like lights, cameras, and other accessories directly to your helmet.
What are the bungee cords on the front for?
That's the Lightweight Modular Bungee Shroud (MBS). Those cords are used to hold your night vision goggles (NVGs) tightly against the helmet. This adds stability, reduces wobble when you move, and helps prevent your expensive NVGs from getting snagged on anything.
How do I get the helmet to fit my head correctly?
The helmet has a Vented Lux Liner for comfort and an Occ-Dial Universal Fitband. You just turn the dial at the back of the helmet to tighten or loosen the fitband, giving you a secure and stable fit that is perfect for your head size. The Head-Loc chinstrap also keeps it from moving around.
Can I wear my communication headset with this helmet?
Yes. The helmet has a special recessed groove molded inside the shell. This channel is designed to fit over-the-head communication headsets, so they won't interfere or cause discomfort. You can even take the helmet on and off without having to remove your headset first.
Where can I find the Ops-Core FAST XR Helmet on sale?
The OpsCore XR is available for purchase through Atomic Defense, an authorized dealer of Ops-Core products. Customers can contact Atomic Defense for reliable customer service and to inquire about top-quality Ops-Core products, including the FAST XR Helmet.

- No need to purchase a shipping label! Atomic Defense will give you a pre-paid one.
- A re-certification cost of 20% applies to returns of ballistic and bulletproof products.
- The 20% recertification covers the cost of ensuring the armor is safe. Usually starting with X-Raying the armor for cracks underneath the coating, inspection for damage, and water damage testing. Without this 20%, we would not be able to offer returns on armor.
- There is no way for us to know how or if it was used once shipped, and we have to consider them unsafe until retested, inspected and certified.
- Exchanges and non-ballistic products do not have a re-certification cost.
