The Mark 7 helmet is the current general issue combat helmet of the British Armed Forces. Officially known as the GS (General Service)

Mark 7 combat helmet, it replaced the previous Mark 6A helmet and Mk 6 helmet The Mk 7 offers the same ballistic protection as the Mk 6A, but its new shape allows a soldier to lie flat and shoot straight, without the rear rim digging into he body armour and tipping the front rim over their eyes.

The helmet weights 1.5 kilogram, significantly less than its 1.8-kilogram predecessor.

It also has better chin strapping for stability and is produced in a new colour -tan, unlike the Mk 6A in black and Mk 6 in olive.

It's made based on the same ballistic nylon as the Mk 6 Themean penetration velocity(V50) for the Mk 7 it is about 650 metres per second (2,100ft/s).

This is the velocity at which half (50%) of projectiles are expected to penetrate and is a measure of the helmet'sballistic protection.
