U-WIN Rear Head Protection with Internal Helmet Mount, UHMWPE, Level II Equivalent Protection
The U-WIN rear head protection is designed to enhance safety in one of the most vulnerable areas between the head and neck. The module provides additional ballistic coverage of the occipital region and helps reduce the risk of injury from fragmentation and handgun-caliber threats during combat, tactical, or duty operations.
The design is intended for internal helmet installation and is attached beneath the standard adjustment system using dedicated Velcro loops. This mounting method preserves the compact profile of the gear and does not increase the external dimensions of the helmet.
The module features an anatomical shape that follows the contour of the rear head area, ensuring unrestricted head movement. For improved comfort during prolonged wear, an internal perforated cushioning layer is included, enhancing ventilation and distributing pressure more evenly.
The outer cover is made from durable Cordura 1000D fabric, resistant to abrasion, mechanical stress, and harsh field conditions. Its compact size and low weight make the module virtually unnoticeable during use, without adding unnecessary load to protective equipment.
Ballistic Protection
The set includes a soft ballistic insert made of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), consisting of 55 layers of ballistic material. The insert is hermetically sealed in a waterproof cover to protect it from moisture and environmental exposure.
The total ballistic coverage area is 1.1 dm², providing effective protection of the rear head and neck junction area. According to penetration performance, the insert meets Level II equivalent protection under DSTU 8782:2018 standards and provides resistance against:
- 5.9 g Makarov pistol rounds;
- 8 g Luger pistol rounds;
- 5.5 g 7.62×25 mm Tokarev rounds;
- fired from a distance of 5 meters.
Fragmentation resistance is confirmed by NATO STANAG 2920 testing. The V50 rating of 723 m/s demonstrates strong protection against high-velocity fragments and secondary impact threats.
