Team Wendy has launched the RifleTech helmet at SHOT Show 2025. The new helmet combines cutting-edge materials, breakthrough design, and rigorous testing to create a new standard for high-velocity ballistic protection.

Building on decades of innovation and deep collaboration with military and law enforcement professionals, Team Wendy’s RifleTech helmet offers NIJ Level III protection, meaning it’s built to stop rifle rounds, including 7.62x39 MSC, 7.62x51mm FMJ, and 5.56 M193 BT. For all its advanced capabilities, the RifleTech stays impressively light, delivering the perfect mix of protection and comfort to keep wearers going through demanding missions.

“This is more than just another ballistic helmet—it’s the result of years of research, testing and a relentless drive to meet the real-world needs of operators in the field,” said Daron Shank, helmet product category director for Team Wendy. “The RifleTech is the perfect example of what Team Wendy is here to do: Deliver innovation, ensure durability and focus on user safety and performance."

Team Wendy RifleTech isn’t just about protection—it’s about versatility, the company says. With Team Wendy Ceradyne’s signature no-through-hole technology, the helmet maintains its full ballistic integrity even when outfitted with mission-critical accessories like night vision mounts, communication devices and modular rail attachments. Its advanced maximum airflow suspension system ensures comfort, stability and wearability in the most demanding environments, allowing operators to stay focused on the task at hand.

“Whether you’re responding to high-risk situations as part of a tactical unit or patrolling in unpredictable terrain, the RifleTech helmet is designed to be a game-changer,” Shank added. “It’s light enough to support agility, tough enough to handle the threats and comfortable enough for all-day wear.”

Key Features of the RifleTech Helmet:

• Elite Round Threat Protection (RTP): NIJ Level III design shields against 7.62x39 MSC, 7.62x51mm FMJ and 5.56 M193 BT rounds at muzzle velocities.
