Look below for our charts to help choose the model you need. Choosing the right Ops-Core helmet can be a daunting task, each offering its own advantages and features. It's important to take into account the type of protection you need and how the helmet will be used in order to get the best possible fit and protection.
Atomic Defense offers a wide range of helmets that are designed to meet the toughest military requirements. From their FAST® family of helmets, which is their most advanced and comes with the latest in accessories, to Sentry™ helmet platforms and TBH helmets, Ops-Core has something for everyone.
All of these ballistic helmets provide superior protection against handgun threats and some rifle threats as well. Furthermore, all helmet platforms can be mission configured with various system components such as NVG shrouds and VELCRO® Brand fasteners for maximum versatility on the battlefield.
The FAST® family of hybrid composite helmets is the most advanced yet. The newest and lightest ballistic helmet, the FAST SF, boasts top-of-the-line accessories while providing a comfortable fit that accommodates comms headsets. The high-cut trim design of both the FAST XP high-cut and FAST LE offers more coverage compared to the SF.
However, this comes with slightly increased weight in exchange for enhanced ballistics protection. For those looking for extra security against handgun threats, then look no further than the NIJ-compliant FAST LE—a favorite choice among law enforcement personnel!
The Sentry helmet is a lightweight and agile protective shield, based on the FAST helmet geometry. It will provide you with the same ballistic safety as an ACH helmet, but with increased coverage area to create additional protection. Ops-Core ARC Rails and Skeleton Shroud allow for personalized customization according to mission requirements, offering XP or LE levels of defense. With this revolutionary design from SENTRY™, your head is guarded against harm like never before!
TBH helmets are constructed according to the ACH geometry and come in different shapes: high-cut, mid-cut, and low-cut. Additionally, they can be customized with either an NVG shroud or VELCRO® Brand fasteners plus Ops-Core ARC Rails. Plus, TBH IIIA meets NIJ standards for handgun protection while its sister model TBH R1 is capable of providing both handguns as well as some rifle protection in accordance with new NIJ regulations. This is accomplished by using the highest quality polyethylene and woven aramid available.
These Ops-Core helmets have been designed to protect against low-velocity impacts. They are extremely lightweight and comfortable, making them ideal for extended wear while still providing superior protection. With a vented lux liner and a modular bungees, they are also adjustable and feature an ergonomic fit system that allows you to customize the fit of the helmet for maximum comfort and protection. The OPSCore helmet is constructed from a high-performance polycarbonate shell with a 6-layer foam inner liner which absorbs and disperses energy from low-velocity impacts.
Yes, civilians can buy Ops-Core helmets, although most of these helmets are designed for military and law enforcement personnel. When purchasing a helmet or other situational awareness products for civilian use, it is important to understand the helmet’s capabilities, limitations, and size restrictions. Additionally, most Ops-Core helmets can be custom fitted with add-on accessories such as visors, ear protection, and communication headsets.

11/10! The small touches made such a big impact, like the patch, stickers and jolly ranchers were something I am beyond grateful for! Amazing product! Great price, very much satisfied.

This is a solid concept and well built. My 7yr old is fine with the extra weight and likes the backpack deign. My only feedback would be to have the plate in a more heavy duty pocket so it doesn't move around so easily when child is in motion/running
Worked great & a great buy. A little pricey, but worth the money. I didn’t miss a beat while firing or working the range, and I got a lot of compliments too.
Great buy, worked great and got a lot of compliments on them.
Worked great while on the range while firing and while working on the range, didn’t miss a single word or order put out around me.
Fast delivery. Definitely worth the upgrade from my Sordins. Even got a free coffee cup!
So far the light is great. Brighter than a few arisakas and surefire I have. At first I was iffy about not having a pressure pad, but found out it is easy to manipulate while using my normal grip. I like how the switch is easy to turn on while using minimal pressure. So far so good, seems like a solid light. I'll be testing this weekend to see how it will hold up. I have a 12.5 308 that I have it on, and ready to see how it will withstand.
Product was as described. Appears to be good quality. Fast shipping. Highly recommend!
The fit and prompt service were spot on
I reviewed several videos from outside sources on this helmet and was impressed by how well it stood up to the ballistic testing. Also the fit and finish was good.Hopefully I’ll never have to use this for defensive purposes.
Perfect fit....Great padding better than my other 2 helmets....love the super high cut and the BOA system..
Found the carrier I was looking for in stock. Shipping was fast.
Delivered on time. It was as described - but way heavier and thicker than I imagined. Have to get a bigger backpack in order for it to fit with books, ect...
The box when arrived was shredded - super surprised it was delivered - but it made it.
Very fast shipping on atomic defenses part and excellent service
Good gear, fast and as advertised.
On a full time team I **** wearing glasses under ear pro so I ditched the eye pro until I got these. Came right on time and atomic defense was more then helpful in getting this package to me.
