The QGF-03 helmet (Chinese: QGF03钢盔) is a combat helmet deployed by the People's Liberation Army in 2005. The helmet, like its predecessor the QGF-02, is made from a Kevlar composite material and replaces older steel helmets such as the GK80 for frontline troops.
History
The QGF-03 is being replaced by the QGF-11[1] (Type 11)[2] and the Type 15A helmet, based on a tender notice issued by the PLA on August 4, 2017.[3]
Development
The QGF-03 helmet was a development from the first Chinese kevlar helmet, the QGF-02, first produced in 1994[4] and issued to units such as the Hong Kong Garrison and the Macao Garrison.[2] The QGF-02 was intended to be lighter than the existing steel helmets and ballistically equivalent to the US PASGT helmet.
The development of the helmet was based on the Gefechtshelm M92.[2] It later changed to use the MICH helmet as a basis.[2]
