상품 설명
The CGF Gallet Combat Helmet, commonly known as the SPECTRA
helmet, is the standard ballistic helmet of the French military and several
other nations. It is highly prized by collectors and military enthusiasts for
its historical service and distinctive design. [1, 2]
Key Details
• Manufacturer: Originally CGF Gallet (now part of MSA
Safety).
• Material: Constructed from ultra-high-molecular-weight
polyethylene Spectra fibres under license from Honeywell.
• Weight: 1.4 kg (3.1 lbs).
• Protection: Designed primarily for fragmentation
resistance rather than stopping direct rifle rounds, meeting NATO STANAG 2920
standards. [1, 2, 3]
Service History & Variations
• Introduced in 1992, the SPECTRA was famously used by
French peacekeepers during the Balkan Wars (often called the blue helmet
variation) and in Afghanistan. [1, 2]
• CGF Gallet also produced early MICH (Modular Integrated
Communications Helmet) and TC-2000 models, which were widely adopted by US
Special Operations and general forces. [1, 2]
• Today, used surplus SPECTRA helmets can be found on
collector and auction markets, often accompanied by French CCE or desert
camouflage covers.
