Product Overview
The STRIKER PLT occupies the value-positioned tier of the Chase Tactical helmet family — delivering the same NIJ 0106.01 Level IIIA ballistic performance and PASGT full-coverage shell geometry as the upgraded PLTp4, with a modified ASSH 4-point harness and headband configuration. For agencies equipping large numbers of patrol officers, reserve personnel, or auxiliary units where the elevated cost of a D3O pad system creates budget constraints, the STRIKER PLT is an accessible solution that maintains genuine ballistic protection without compromising NIJ standard compliance.
The PASGT shell profile was originally designed by the U.S. military and has been in continuous service since the 1980s — a testament to its durability and protection geometry. The extended brim, deep side coverage, and low rear provide protection zones absent in ACH and high-cut designs. Chase Tactical's Kevlar® composite construction modernizes this proven design within a more economically accessible configuration.
NIJ Standard 0106.01 certification confirms protection against 9mm FMJ (1,400 ft/s), .357 Magnum JSP (1,395 ft/s), and .44 Magnum SJHP (1,400 ft/s). MIL-STD 662F fragmentation testing confirms the shell performs against military-standard fragmentation threats including RCC fragments and 17 gr FSP projectiles — relevant for correctional emergency response and crowd-management units operating where thrown objects, chemical munitions, and improvised projectiles are potential threats in addition to firearms.
