Diggerworks – The voice of today’s Soldier for tomorrow’s fight.
Diggerworks is a unique, multi-disciplinary team, consisting of operationally experienced soldiers, engineers, scientists and project managers. The Diggerworks Vision is to be recognised as the Home of Soldier Innovation and Integration, a valued partner contributing to world class combat solutions and to enhance the capability of the ADF dismounted combatant.
Aquaterro is the prime contractor for Land 125 Phase 3B (Tiered Combat Helmet), providing the Team Wendy Exfil Ballistic helmet.
Following comprehensive user engagement activities conducted by Diggerworks as part of the Women in Combat program, two consistent themes arose for improvement to the Tiered Combat Helmet:
The fit and stability were problematic for many users, and:
the helmet retention system didn’t allow easy use with long hair for female soldiers.
The Team Wendy Size 0 Helmet Project was a successful collaboration between Diggerworks and Aquaterro, addressing and optimising helmet systems for women in combat. Aquaterro have supplied over 50,000 helmets to Defence and the Team Wendy Size 0 Helmet Project is another example of Aquaterro’s continued support and contribution to soldiers on the front line.
