THE CAIMAN HYBRID HELMET SYSTEM is a streamlined, lightweight next-generation Special Operations helmet solution. Explicitly designed for accessory and component integration, users can also up the protection level of the Caiman Hybrid System for varying threats and unpredictable scenarios.
The Caiman Hybrid Helmet is the first carbon bump helmet in the industry that can be ballistically-enabled. When paired with the two-piece, up-armor Applique, the threat-level protection of the hybrid shell is elevated to meet military-grade ballistic and impact protection standards.
A series of modular accessories – including a Wilcox® Shroud, a lean rail system, and the innovative, multi-size APEX Liner System – enhance this helmet suite, ensuring users are equipped with the lightest, most comfortable, and highest performance head protection possible.
Working directly with SOF operators, Galvion built the Caiman Helmet System from the ground up, crafting a helmet solution designed for peak performance in high-intensity, volatile conditions – optimized for riverine, maritime, high-altitude, free-fall, and ground maneuvers. The result: an unconventional helmet system for unconventional missions.
