- "How do I look?"
"Uh… you might want to lose the helmet." - ―Jonas Quinn and Major Samantha Carter[src]
A Tactical helmet, or Combat helmet, is a form of head protection used by the Tau'ri.
History[]
In 1996, people wore helmets when Colonel Jack O'Neill led the first team to Abydos through Stargate. (Stargate)
Guards headed to the gate room.
In 1997, helmets were occasionally used when Stargate Command first began sending SG teams. Though the trend didn't last with SG-1, the SGC still had helmets available. As seen in 2002, when Jonas Quinn first joined the team and arrived to the Embarkation room with a helmet on. Major Sam Carter suggested to him that he might want to lose it and so he didn't use it. (SG1: "Children of the Gods", "Redemption, Part 2")
Tactical helmets issued to most soldiers at Phoenix Site had a night vision modification as well as attachment points for additional lighting or other tools. The helmet's night vision visual enhancement could grant the wearer the ability to see in complete darkness and in low-light. It was monochromatic (typically green) and lacked the ability to discern colors and some other fine detail.[2] (RPG: "Core Rulebook")
