AUSTRALIAN DEFENCE FORCE SELECTS TEAM WENDY EXFIL BALLISTIC HELMET
I’m really not sure what makes me happier…….. the fact that my friends at Team Wendy have secured a major contract or that the Australian soldiers have a government that cares enough to equip them with the best, most comfortable helmet on the planet.
The United States Army Green Berets and other SOCOM operators BUY THESE HELMETS OUT OF POCKET because they are so good!
Well, hats off to the Australian government for doing the right thing and congratulations to Team Wendy who have developed a product that all soldiers crave and deserve!
Our very own Boy Scout is rocking one in harms way as we speak so….end of rant!

Tiered Combat Helmet Contract awarded to Aquaterro APS
CLEVELAND – Team Wendy announces that its EXFIL Ballistic Helmet has been selected by the Australian Defence Force (ADF) as Tiered Combat Helmet (TCH) of record (Tiers 2 and 3) for the Soldier Combat Ensemble (SCE). The five-year contract with two additional 2 year options was awarded to Team Wendy’s partner in Australia, Aquaterro APS.
The EXFIL Ballistic is the third model in the Team Wendy EXFIL line, following two popular non-ballistic tactical bump helmets: Carbon (released in 2012) and LTP™ (Lightweight Tactical Polymer, released in 2013).
With a complete helmet system weight of 2.6 lbs. for Size 1 and 2.75 lbs. for Size 2, boltless CAM FIT™ retention with Boa® closure system for optimized stability and fit, cam-lock sliders for positive locking adjustment, and a customized Zorbium® impact liner with 2 full sets of comfort pads, the EXFIL Ballistic is designed to be comfortable during extended use all the while providing leading edge ballistic protection.
“We are thrilled that the ADF has selected the EXFIL Ballistic as their Tier 2 and Tier 3 program of record helmet. We also appreciate the confidence that the ADF has placed in Team Wendy and our partner in Australia, Aquaterro” said Team Wendy CEO Jose Rizo-Patron. “Since launching our EXFIL helmet program 3 years ago, we have worked hard to not only put out some of the most advanced helmet systems in the world, but to also provide our valued customers with industry leading service and support.” Rizo-Patron continued, “Team Wendy also recognizes the importance of working with industry leading strategic partners. To this end, we are pleased to highlight the support of our partners that are associated with the EXFIL Ballistic Helmet – ArmorSource LLC, Wilcox Industries and Boa Technology Inc.”
