Is this practical?
>>34767311
Depends, are you sitting around expecting to get shot at or are you scaling a mountain.
>>34767311
It looks heavy as fuck. I wouldn't want to patrol with something like that.
>>34767311
Against schrapnel, yes
Against bullets, even if you get shot in the face and you don't die, chances are you'll get knocked out.
I heard if your hand is bigger than your face, you have cancer.
>>34767349
I mean, better knocked out than dead if I'm to be honest
I think this would be better
>>34767311
Zed thought so.
>>34767410
Who's Zed?
No, there's a million more effective ballistic mask designs. That one is just silly. You'll never be able to protect against more than a pistol bullet though, just because of energy transfer to your neck. Pic related is actually not a terrible design (but lots of room for improvement)
>>34767430
Zed's dead baby, Zed's dead.

I don't think fear/intimidation goes hand to hand with practical most of the time.

redesign that shield area around the face (it's basically horse blinders) and bring the visor back a little further on the sides for better visibility and it's actually bretty gud.

Chances are if it stops the bullet, the impact will break whatever bones are behind the impact.
You may not get shot in the face, but you ain't going back into battle or surviving the race wars with a broken eye socket.

For what it's intended to, yes. It protects from knocks, rocks, bottles etc and small projectiles, and it's intimidating. It's more a riot device.

Why? If the armor doesn't dent then it will spread the impact over its entire surface area. It would be the equivalent of getting punched and if it's a pistol bullet it would be a comparatively weak punch. Even so you can make it so that it doesn't directly touch your head and also have a soft impact delaying layer better the actual armor and skull. Different geometry designs and different materials could also make the projectiles deflect off the armor instead of fully flattening out.

>>34767311
Demo ranch tested against several handgun rounds. Stopped up to and including 44 Mag, killed it with 500 mag.
Does a good job of deflecting thanks to the curved surface which is what makes the design shape a good one. The only rifle he tried was 17HMR.

I have a friend with one of these that he wears to mosh pits. He always leaves with a broken nose, but wearing this some dude still tried to punch him in the face and it busted his hand.
Can't say he'd been shot in the face with it yet, but it seems like a good buy to keep around just in case.
Also Taiwan special forces use them, so there must be some merit
Seems difficult to use eyepro with them.

Those masks seem pretty cool, but I see very few real world uses for them. It makes far more sense to opt for one of those level II-III clear face shields. Even if it's heavier you can at least see what you're doing.

you'd need a battle buddy with a damn jerry can of water constantly refilling your camelback to avoid stroking out, and another to reload your damn gun for you. and another to hand truck your ass back to the base after a whole 30min op time
>>34783222
But you'd look badass the whole time.
That's all that matters.
>>34783211
>>34783210
Those mask would protect you against shrapnel and maybe against pistol calibers, but anything else would go right through.
I own one, as a joke.
They're junk. Neat, but junk.
>eyes not protected
>peripheral vision is fucked
>ZERO ventilation for breath
>hot as balls
But, it'll stop a pistol round or shrapnel. Not good for active engagement but I'm sure there's a niche that it'd fit in. Those Russian ones are better.

Exoskeleton so you can actually move.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2W23ysgWKI
As for cooling there are a bunch of ways to do that, you can take your pick after looking it up.
As for ammo, you can always carry that in a backpack, it's not like you can carry that much regularly anyway.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4QagenzsK0
The only really expensive part is the exoskeleton, and I would suggest using VR headset with cameras, so you can eliminate the problem with vision.
>>34767311
I'd say it can be useful for a "pointman" to keep on his person and put it on just before a breach. However IMO the Ops-Core face-shield (pic related) is more useful, as it's faster to put on and you don't have to take your helmet off to put the mask on.

Tacticool looking for no real reason.
There's no real reason to make segmented sections and such. Make it one piece cover and make the interior padding second.
The only thing that needs to be interchangeable is the eye covering in case they get scratched or worse.
P.S. Uniform slick surface also make painting creepy voodoo shit on it easier.
>>34774446
>implying we shouldn't just execute them all
>>34784036
the bottom half of that mask is not bulletproof. if that is kevlar or some shit the round would hit that mesh shit and then rip it off and into your face permenatly disfiguring you if you even survived. pretty sure thats an airsoft mask tho
>>34785227
IIRC it can stop 9mm@1200fps. It would be unreasonable to expect face shields against rifle threats to be that lightweight
>>34784180

Masks need to deal with moisture and literal water better.
Even rain is made unbearable if you are wearing those kinds of masks.
