RA195 Combat ANR Headset

Overview

 

Originally designed for the British Army Mk VI combat helmet, the RA195 has been field proven through several conflicts and has received a number of product improvements.

 

Key Features

  • Active Noise Reduction
  • Electronic Talk Through
  • Retrofittable, digital ANR (coming in 2008)

 

Benefits

The RA195 has noise attenuation exceeding that of some combat vehicle crew (CVC) helmets.  Used with the new generation of helmets such as the US advanced combat helmet (ACH) it is a viable alternative to the conventional CVC helmet, offering more ballistic coverage and protection particulalry from roadside blasts.

 

New earcushion material has been used that leads to reduced fatigue and ultimately better effectiveness.

 

Technology insertion in the form of retrofittable, digital ANR  means that users will benefit from a whole host of new features such as built in test, which will extend the headset's service life and lead to reduced whole life costs.

 

Applications

The RA195 is ideal for mechanised infantry in tracked AIFVs and APCs.
