Now that's a Trophy!
What you are seeing is not your ordinary standart issue helmet, far from it. This is a rare variant of the ZSh-1 Helmet, manufactured by russian Company Classcom. Introduced in 2017, this helmet has been adopted by various russian special forces. The version here, in subdued green, is a military exclusive version.
This helmet traces it's lineage to the legendary ALTYN Helmet, and was originally focused to fill the same niche: Anti-Riot operations, as well as Urban CQB executed by military and police special forces. For this purpose, the coverage of the helmet is maximised.
Since the start of the "3-Day SMO" a couple of years ago, the design found a new purpose among special forces - it provides fantastic coverage in a war, where most casualties are due to shrapnel and drones. Several special forces units have adopted this helmet.
Same as this very helmet here:
Autumn 2024, Kursk, Sudzhansky District, russia.
A Ukrainian Special Forces team of the Military Intelligence "HUR" has spotted a dugout of russian special forces.
The enemies are eliminated in battle, a flawless victory. Upon inspection of the site, the defeated are identified as members of Rosgvardia Elite Special Forces, specifically the Chechen "AIDA" Reconnaissance Group. During this engagement, this Helmet was captured.
The Helmet is in absolutely fantastic condition. Field worn, but absolutely 100 field serviceable, all parts are present, even the rare removable ballistic neck protection. The Helmet is Size 1 and includes a helmet cover in the rare A-TACS FG, including the name patch of it's previous owner "Beard". "Beard" no langer has a use for this helmet, and now it could be yours.
This is an extremely rare, Trophy helmet, captured by HUR Special Forces, during the Kursk Operation and is in fantastic condition. A jewel in any Militaria Collection.
Provenance? We got you covered. Included in the sale of this helmet, is a video, taken by a HUR Operator after the fight, the Cargo 200 is visible. Only ask for the video if you have the stomache for it!
