About Kavro Doma 360
- It is the world-first rifle-rated ballistic helmet.
- It was indigenously developed by Kanpur-based MKU Limited.
- Features:
- World’s first uniform rifle protection helmet: It offers uniform protection in all 5 zones of the head (front, back, left, right, and crown) against threats like the AK-47 MSC, M80 NATO BALL, and M193 rifle bullets.
- Only boltless rifle protection helmet to date:
- It’s the first anti-rifle helmet in the world that does not have bolts or any metal parts.
- When a helmet is bolted, the risk of the bolt penetrating the skull on impact is higher due to weakened areas.
- Furthermore, there are no rifle-rated bolts at the moment.
- It has a boltless shell, which means it provides 40% more protection area against even AK-47 assault rifles than standard helmets.
- 20mm Back Face Signature (Blunt Impact Trauma):
- It’s the first rifle-rated helmet that can maintain a resulting Back Face Signature/Trauma of less than 20 mm, against bullet impact from AK-47 bullets.
- The ‘Back Face Signature’ is a way to measure how much a protective helmet deforms or indents on the inside due to the impact of a high- energy bullet.
- The Kavro Doma 360 absorbs impact, substantially reducing the risk of injury due to resulting trauma to the wearer’s head.
- Advanced Harness System with Dynamic Impact Technology:
- It provides protection from not just straight impacts but also rotational/angular impacts, which are known to cause concussions or brain injuries.
- In addition, it comes with top-to-chin and side-to-side harness adjustment functionality for the highest stability and a snug fit.
- Maximum Compatibility (with MACS): It allows seamless integration with all advanced head-mounted devices and combat equipment.
