The study provides life cycle cost data on these US Army infantry- type helmets: (1) Titanium Type I; (2) Titanium Type III; (3) LINCLOE nylon; and (4) Hayes-Stewart. These data include research and development, production, and operating costs. A 95 per cent learning (experience) curve gradient is appropriate for helmet production.
