The Predator Full Facial Armor System by Mtek

To help protect soldiers from shrapnel and other flying debris of war, Mtek Weapons Systems have developed a facial armor system that can be used in conjunction with currently fielded helmets.

The Kevlar Predator System recently took runner up prize, in PTC’s “Redefining Innovation Product Design Contest 2008.”

The Predator Facial Armor System (FAST) was designed by marine Ben Mahan, who after serving Iraq, decided that a full facial armor system which did not degrade or inhibit a soldier’s peripheral vision, could go a long way to saving lives of our troops on the front lines.
