I thought I would share a couple of interesting varieties of Iraqi helmets here. First up is an M-80 that is overpainted in a blue/gray for Air Force use. These can be found in use by Air Defence units as shown below.
Next is another M-80 variant. This helmet utilizes the liner and chinstrap from from the Polish WZ-50 helmet and is used primarily by the Popular Army. It is factory reworked with new rivets added to accomodate the liner. Scott.
I saw an M80 helmet with a leather liner like that but I did not go after it thinking it looked strange, but I guess some of them had liners like that and the one you showed. Nice items.
