The Aire System also provides three ‘AireSupport‘ suspension systems, as well as three ‘AireLink retention systems, for users to choose from. Available accessories include ultra-lightweight ‘AireMount‘ shrouds, AireRail‘ side-rails, and multiple newly designed accessories.

An additional Aire option is the ‘AireLock Liner System‘, a ballistic version of the Skydex IsoFit. When worn with an ArmorSource-certified shell, this revolutionary floating/mesh system provides a new level of comfort and safety to users.

“The new Aire system provides not only the highest ballistic and environmental performance at the lightest weight, but is also versatile and modular, built to allow each of our customers, no matter if they are front-line warriors, tankers, marines, law enforcement, SWAT, special command, or security guard, to build their own head protection configuration. This is a new game, not only for ArmorSource, but for its customers,” says Nick Gramly, ArmorSource’s VP of Technology. “To make sure the system performance stays consistent for long periods, the shells went through extensive third-party testing that included testing under multiple conditions such as extreme hot and cold, salt water, exposure to common field agents, high altitude, and accelerated aging.”
