Revision Military, a world leader in protective soldier solutions, has expanded its product portfolio with what the company calls the world’s first fully integrated night vision mount and accessory rail system, expertly designed to fit ACH-style helmets. The Revision VIPER Front Mount doubles as an NVG mount as well as the platform to armour up in high-threat situations with the BATLSKIN Visor and Mandible Guard creating a fully integrated and modular head protection system. The new Interlocking Rails provide the capability to quickly attach headborne accessories. Pairing perfectly with the new Front Mount and Interlocking Long Rails, Revision also introduces a new BATLSKIN VIPER High-Cut helmet designed to offer a lightweight, functional shell in both traditional Aramid materials (VIPER A1) and high performance Polyethylene materials (VIPER P2).

“Ever since the initial launch of the BATLSKIN Head Protection System, the Revision team has continued to evolve the product offering to utilize innovative design and the newest materials,” says Jonathan Blanshay, CEO of Revision. “We continue to offer seamless integration and lightweight performance soldiers and law enforcement officers can count on for the ultimate head and face protection.”
Revision’s upgraded BATLSKIN Head Protection System made its North American debut at the Special Operations show, SOFIC in Tampa, FL, 20-22 May 2014. Its European unveiling takes place at Eurosatory.
Revision’s lightweight, multi-purpose Front Mount now features an interchangeable centre piece system. The slim and easy to use design, allows the user to swap the receiver component to accommodate various NVG interface plates for compatibility with commonly used NVGs. Most notably, the Front Mount acts as the MPAS platform, enabling seamless integration of the BATLSKIN VIPER Interlocking Long Rails, Visor and Mandible Guards, offering the crucial ability to up armour when needed.
Allowing the integrated head protection system to be scalable and adaptable to any mission, the new BATLSKIN VIPER Long Rails enable quick and easy attachment of cameras, lights, and other head borne accessories, allowing the user to focus on their mission. The Interlocking Long Rails interconnect with the Front Mount and can be used in conjunction with the BATLSKIN VIPER Visor and Mandible Guards.
BATLSKIN VIPER Three-Position Visor
Designed with the end user in mind, the three-position visor clips into the Front Mount with a simple one-handed movement. The visor can be worn three ways from maximum coverage to maximum breathability: locked, vented or up. The visor offers quality high-impact protection, flawless optics and maximum field-of-view while remaining scratch, fog and chemical resistant. Ready for battle, the visor system includes an optional gasket which provides a seal between the helmet and Visor.BATLSKIN VIPER Mandible Guards
The updated Mandible Guard provides best-in-class lower-face protection in a strapless design that’s lightweight, quick to fit without tools and quick to remove. Available in both ballistic and wire-frame configurations, each Mandible Guard attaches without tools to the BATLSKIN Front Mount, providing rapid attachment and removal of the face guard. These guards are easily tilted downwards in varying degrees for improved sight compatibility, eating and drinking. Pushing the mandible against the chest– a quick, hands-free operation – brings it back to the original position.Revision develops and delivers purpose-built protective soldier equipment for military use worldwide.
