ArmorSource Awarded Contract for 30,000 CREW II Helmets by U.S. Army
DLA places major new order for ultra-lightweight ballistic helmets, expanding ArmorSource’s role in military modernization
HEBRON, OHIO / ACCESS Newswire / April 11, 2025 / Following the successful delivery of 14,000 units of its next-generation CREW II Advanced Combat Vehicle Crewman (ACVC) helmet system, ArmorSource has been awarded a major follow-on contract by the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA).

"We view this latest order as a powerful vote of confidence from the U.S. government and military," said Timothy McNeal, ArmorSource Vice President of Operations. "Our unwavering focus on safety and continuous technical innovation has enabled us to deliver what we believe is the most advanced combat helmet system available today."
ArmorSource continues to expand its global footprint, delivering cutting-edge protection solutions that meet the evolving demands of modern warfare - while maintaining its core commitment to mission readiness and soldier safety.
