Browse Fixed Wing Browse Rotary Wing Situational Awareness Mission Endurance Whether accurately interpreting auditory cues or receiving information intelligibly in extremely noisy environments, pilots and crew rely on sound to execute mission objectives. ANR technology in aircrew helmet systems improves aircrew hearing protection and situational awareness. 3D Hear-Through Technology World-class electronic technology provides unprecedented audio quality with the ability to operate in combat environments. 3D Hear-Through (3DHT) restores and enhances “natural hearing” of outside environments. 3DHT control allows the operator to boost their hearing up to +12dB. Scaleable and Configurable Manage a variety of decibel levels with versatile configurations. Increase mission effectiveness by enhancing helmet configurations with improved hearing protection and communications solutions. Conformable earseals improve passive attenuation and passive noise cancelling microphones improve speech intelligibility. Thinking ahead of the aircraft is critical to mission success. Gentex’s user-driven designs provide the highest levels of hearing protection and increased situational awareness, combined with maximum mission configurability. Our hearing enhancement and scalable hearing protection, combined with microphones optimized for speech intelligibility, allowing for clear communication throughout any mission. Browse Situational Awareness Products Respiratory Protection Oxygen Masks The Gentex family of aircrew oxygen masks connect fixed wing platform oxygen systems to the person flying the mission. The MBU-20 series of masks delivers safe, consistent breathing performance and protection in the event of ejection. Multiple sizes are designed to provide off-the-shelf fit and comfort to 98% of male and female aircrew. Numerous configuration options allow integration into most fixed wing aircraft. LPPR Gentex’s Low Profile Particulate Respirator offers aircrew respiratory protection respiratory protection for helicopter, tilt rotor and low altitude fixed wing platforms. 99.97% effective protection against a wide range of particulate contaminants encountered by aircrew in operational environments such as sand, dust, rocket/gunfire residue, lead, hydraulic and other oil-based mist. TACAIR CBRN The ultimate in fixed wing aircrew protection for missions into chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threat environments. The Gentex TACAIR flight ensemble provides head-to-toe protection which integrates with platform oxygen, PBG, communications, hydration and ejection systems.
