Mounted: Tracked

Tracked vehicles, such as AIFVs, APCs and MBTs, house some of the highest and constant noise environments experienced by the modern soldier, with noise levels of up to 120dB(A), for periods of up to eight hours or more. Wearing a ballistic helmet, with the need to clearly communicate to other crewmembers, can be uncomfortable and tiring.

This sets some rigorous challenges for the communications headset, ones that Racal addresses through combining passive and active noise reduction techniques and enhanced acoustic capability. The result is clear, intelligible communications using noise cancelling microphones and ANR (click here for an explanation) technology. End-user fatigue is minimised by a headset that is comfortable to wear, rugged, easy to use and specifically designed to integrate with ballistic and bump protection equipment.
