Ops-Core RF1; FAST High Cut Ballistic Helmet System
The Ops-Core FAST RF1, part of the FAST ballistic protective helmet family, is the newest generation of innovative head-borne protection. At an average of 3.5 lbs, it is the lightest weight helmet system to offer protection from 7.62x39mm projectiles, in addition to frag and handgun protection. The FAST RF1 integrates with Ops-Core total head-borne system solutions, including situational awareness, optics, and respiratory protection.
Ops-Core Maritime - Features & Specifications:
- Industry-leading ballistic protection against small arms threats.
- High-cut, ballistic shell made of a hybrid composite of the most advanced Carbon, Unidirectional Polyethylene, and woven Aramid.
- High-cut shell geometry extends critical coverage over the rear occipital lobe without load carrier interference and optimizes weight distribution for increased stability, integration, balance, and comfort.
- Ear cut geometry is 16 mm higher than the FAST XP High Cut shell shape, allowing larger headset-style communication devices to be cleared.
- High Cut Skeleton Rails offer a lower profile with a 30% weight reduction from FAST MT Super High Cut Rails.

- Molded liner features a proprietary recessed groove, accommodating over-the-head communications headsets with no interference or user discomfort, and the ability to doff and don the helmet without removing the headset.
- The helmet interior features an expanded polypropylene (EPP) liner, offering enhanced impact protection, and molded-in vent holes provide increased airflow and reduce heat stress.

- 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.
