Helmet and Goggles

The SDU operates the AC-100 helmet made in the UK which is also adopted by the British SAS. The helmet can protect the officer from 9 x 19mm ammo rounds.

The French Boll'e goggle is famous for its low price yet a high quality is offered. The goggle can sustain hits from 9 x 19mm ammo rounds fired form pistols, and offers the least distortion on wearer's vision.

The S-10 gas mask is also a common mask used by SDU officers, especially the missions require them to use tear gas. The S-10 operates with charcoal to filter the air. However due to its limitation to the sights, the SDU is replacing their S-10 gas masks with the Advantage 1000 CBA-RCA gas masks. The gas mask is designed in such a way that the distortion on wearer's vision and limitation are minimized.
