here's a IRAQI M80 helmet shell that has the same type of Polish WZ50 liner conversion for comparison

it has the look of a Iraqi war bring back, I wonder why they would take the liner from a good Polish helmet and put it in the M1 type shell? then you would have a Polish shell missing the liner, unless the Polish helmet had a badly damaged shell and they salvaged the liner from it

I think this helmet might be a IRAQI helmet? notice it has a Polish Wz50 liner w / chin strap that has been crudely riveted in a M1 type shell painted desert tan, Ive seen some other helmets like the Iraqi M80 helmet with the same type of liner installed , I think it looks like something done by the Iraqis

April 1990 , President Saddam Hussein is seen wearing an Iraqi version of the US style olive green M65 field jacket

Good information I have a few that look like this that came from the Saddam Hussein's al Qadassiya Victory Arch.

Original Iraqi Army Saddam Era Issue Airborne Para Helmet - Complete

this is a French made F1 helmet supplied to Iraq

>>>>

here is a photo showing IRAQI paratroopers wearing the Polish WZ63 / East German helmet

they also wore French F1 para helmets

the Hungarian M50 helmet is the first post WWII helmet manufactured by the Hungarians, these are not that easy to find, seems like you see the Polish WZ50 much more than the Hungarian M50 helmets on ebay

lots of these were also exported to the middle east and used in the Arab / Israeli wars
