Zsh-1

The ЗШ-1, or Zsh-1, is a crash helmet of protective level I GOST_R_50744-95.

It was developed in the mid 1990's using the basic form of combat pilots' helmets. What resulted as a tight fitting helmet of composite materials weighing in at 1.4kg.

The back and sides of the helmet differ from most Russian crash helmets in that they conform to the profile of the head with minimal spacing. This reduces the risk of fragments getting under the shell, but it also decreases the hearing of the user. Because of this and the helmet's lackluster ergonomic characteristics, it is not particularly liked by those who use it. As a result, Classcom did not use the design in any of their future projects.

Besides the standard configuration, Classcom offers a number of options including the installation of radio communications, a bulletproof or shockproof visor, and the addition of a neck guard at the rear base of the helmet.
