Wasn't the US working on something similar?

FULLY INTEGRATED, FULLY MODULAR COBRA PLUS HEAD PROTECTION SYSTEM DESIGNED FOR UK TROOPS

In 2016, Revision Military will supply UK soldiers with new head sub-systems kit as part of the Virtus program. The custom head protection solution, known as the Batlskin Cobra Plus, is the lightest, most adaptable system ever made, providing premium head and face protection.

“Cobra Plus is the most versatile, lightweight head protective solution ever created.”
The Cobra Plus Helmet, with its new Modular Suspension System Liner, exceeds the UK’s stringent ballistic and impact helmet requirements and can be coupled with the Modular Protective Attachment System (MPAS) for full face, scalable protection. The fully integrated, fully modular suite allows soldiers to up armor with the Batlskin Visor and Ballistic Mandible Guard in high threat situations or scale down when only helmet and eye protection are needed.

Interesting. Hopefully it works as good as it looks.
