Description
Aspida™ Carbon Aviation Helmet
Introducing the Aspida™ Carbon! As with every helmet in the Aspida™ family, it includes the innovative Kairos™ Retention Assembly. The retention is a leap forward in comfort and fit, easy to operate with gloves. The Carbon is the highest quality option that Paraclete offers and is 5% lighter than the Aspida. We are talking about the same weight as premium superbike helmets.
The new style Aspida™ uses a different manufacturing process and eliminates paint, saving about 3 ounces. The quality carbon fiber shows through the matte clear finish, which reduces reflections off the helmet. This feature degrades the opposition optical observability of the crew for tactical environments. The result is a helmet fit for flight.
