#1 It looks like a high-tech football helmet. Maybe should be a bit lower in the rear for additional neck protection. Other then that if the new helmet will save more lives, offer more head protection, plus gives our troops advanced state of the art communications, the sooner they are fully perfected, tested & approved, they should be issued to our servicemen in the field.

#2 Much more impressive than what we have now... our current helmets look like they're decades old.

#3 Hmm. Key test: can you sit comfortably on it? If 'no', it's back to the drawing board...

#4 No neck protection. Looks like a helmet some gamer thought up.
