Essex Junction, VT, USA (May 4, 2012) \u2013 Revision Military, a world leader in <\/em>
\nprotective soldier solutions, announces the much anticipated retail debut of its Batlskin <\/em>
\nModular Head Protection System. Designed for use with the Advanced Combat Helmet <\/em>
\n(ACH), the system is now available for purchase by active duty military and Law <\/em>
\nEnforcement Officers (LEO) within the U.S. and Canada. Initial size offerings <\/em>
\naccommodate the ACH helmet\u2019s two most common sizes: Medium and Large, with <\/em>
\nSmall and X-Large sizing available this summer. Comprised of the Front Mount, <\/em>
\nMandible Guard and Visor, the Batlskin System provides full protection from blunt <\/em>
\nforce, blast and ballistic threats with lightweight wearability for peak performance. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Batlskin System is a modular solution that lets the soldier armor up or down <\/em>
\ndepending on the imminent threat level. It provides additional, life-saving protection <\/em>
\nwhen needed with the ability to quickly doff components once no longer necessary,\u201d <\/em>
\nexplains Jonathan Blanshay, CEO of Revision. \u201cWe\u2019re pleased to extend this level of <\/em>
\nprotection to individual soldiers and law officers who operate in harm\u2019s way.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

Available now, the following ACH-compatible Batlskin components can be purchased at <\/em>
\nRevision\u2019s online store and through select military retailers across the U.S.: the Batlskin <\/em>
\nFront Mount (MSRP $89.99); the Batlskin 3-Position Visor (MSRP $279.99); and the <\/em>
\nBatlskin High-Threat Mandible Guard (MSRP $479.99). <\/em><\/p>\n

ABOUT THE BATLSKIN MODULAR HEAD PROTECTION SYSTEM <\/em>
\nRevision\u2019s Batlskin solution uniquely addresses the soldier\u2019s need for a single, <\/em>
\nintegrated head protection system that\u2019s scalable and adaptable to the realities of <\/em>
\nmodern warfare. More specifically, the Batlskin System enables the soldier to \u201cup <\/em>
\narmor\u201d his basic ACH helmet shell by adding a ballistic visor, mandible guard, or both. <\/em>
\nThis allows the warfighter to adopt the ideal balance between enhanced protection and <\/em>
\nlethality.The Batlskin Multipurpose Front Mount is the cornerstone of the Batlskin Head <\/em>
\nProtection system. It is a robust and lightweight universal NVG mount that triples as the <\/em>
\nvisor dock and mandible guard attachment point. It offers greater stability than current <\/em>
\nNVG mounts with a 3-point helmet attachment assembly AND it provides the <\/em>
\nmechanism for mounting advanced protective equipment. <\/em><\/p>\n

The Batlskin High-Threat Mandible Guard provides lightweight blunt force, blast and <\/em>
\nballistic protection for the lower jaw. Its durable, low-profile design is engineered for <\/em>
\nrapid attachment and removal while on the run. It can be donned with or without the <\/em>
\nVisor. <\/em><\/p>\n

The Batlskin Three-Position Visor is an optically correct face shield that can be worn <\/em>
\none of three ways from maximum coverage to maximum breathability: locked, vented or <\/em>
\nup. It is designed to provide maximum field-of-view and can be worn with or without the <\/em>
\nMandible Guard. It is scratch, fog and chemical resistant. <\/em><\/p>\n
