Hi everyone,

Can anyone tell what the name (in military glossary) on the left and the right side of helmet that I think it shields both ears from annoying sound?

Often I saw the same thing on the pilot helmet.

Thank u very much

Hi Jayson,
It looks to me to to be the ear-phone part of the communication system. I think you can just make out the boom mike on the other side. Thease helmets offer little or no ballistic protection and have been abandoned by all apart from the old "Warsaw pact" and third rate Army's.

Hope this has answered your qwestion.
