Bulletproof helmets are used to enhance defense, military, and homeland security. Wearers use them for protection against potentially hazardous elements, ranging from airborne flying particles, ballistic threats, and fragments. The bulletproof helmet is a must for all armed forces, police personnel. These military helms are also compatible with existing Night Vision (NVG) guns and communications packages, defense equipment for nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) and body armors. Features such as night vision cameras providing a clearer view of the situation in the dark or other tough circumstances are becoming more important, which are also being integrated into such helmets.Â
COVID – 19 Scenario Analysis:Â
Increasing government requirements for soldier protection as well as fighting terrorist attacks & insurgency will propel the growth of the advanced combat helmet industry over the coming years. Besides this, cross-order breaches, internal issues, and nation disturbances or insurgencies are anticipated to proliferate global demand for advanced battle helmets. Besides, to shield their soldiers and law enforcement officers from head injuries caused by bullets, IED fires, and shrapnel, the security sector is extensively implementing advanced battle helmets. Also, India, for example, focuses on security cooperation, economic development, and police modernization which reduces the dependence of state governments on the Army and the Central Armed Police Forces by strengthening their existing structure which would also give a boost to bulletproof helmet market growth. However, the high cost of the helmets & malfunctioning of a few technologies could hamper global market development.
The Global Bulletproof helmet market trends are as follows:
An Indian Army Major who had developed a bulletproof jacket for sniper bullet protection has now developed a helmet in February 2020, that is claimed to be the first in the world to be able to stop an AK-47 bullet round from a 10-meter distance. Also, 3M Co. has completed a $91 million sale of its combat equipment operations to Avon Rubber, the company announced in 2020. The armor company, which sells helmets and weapons made of polyethylene fibers resistant to bullets, generates around $85 million annually. Also, for its ground-based armed forces, the U.S. launched its second-generation Integrated Head Protection System (IHPS) in 2019, which is nearly 50% lighter than its predecessor version.
Growing concerns about combatant safety have prompted a range of manufacturers to focus on creating respiratory and fireproof helmets to shield the wearer from slash attacks. The manufacturers are moving towards the use of new, solid, and lightweight materials such as aramid fibers, titanium, aluminum, ceramic, and polymer to reduce weight and increase armor system efficiency. Such lightweight materials increase the helmet’s mobility and durability and provide effective safety. The UN and NATO peacekeeping forces are now using ceramic-plated armor vehicles to defend themselves from mines, aerial fire, artillery, and shrapnel from the mortar.
Also, the increasing use of nanotechnology materials and fibers is one of the main trends affecting the global bulletproof market. Traders have begun to use unique fabrics in helmet manufacturing to increase the effectiveness of troops, to protect police and ballistic protection. Improved nano-properties include lower weight, increased power, improved durability, enhanced reactivity, and ability to modify or change certain features. These features are very useful in reducing soldiers' protective gear weight and improving survival rates.
