Design details[edit]

The EVA variant for the Mark IV still required a T-PACK for maneuvering in zero gravity.[4] The Mark V EVA variant had a shielded visor.[1] The Mark VI EVA variant focuses on increasing exo-atmospheric endurance and improving mobility in zero gravity without the original use of back thrusters.[5] The helmet also contains a single-beam laser TEAMCOM system for communications.[4] The EVA helmet is capable of supporting AN/PCK-221 FARNDALE and AN/PCK-221 FARNDALE Command Network Modules, COURIER PEARL Hardened Uplink and Type C1 UA module.
