The Personnel Armor System for Ground Troops or PASGT is the helmet that replaced the M1 helmet by the 1980s. This helmet was created to level up the protection of the previous iterations that were mostly made of steel. PAGST ballistic helmet is a high performance, multi-layer, light weight combat helmet.
For the next few decades, it became the standard helmet of the military. But eventually demand for improved features such as better fitting led the military to devise newer versions of ballistic helmets.
