1994 Dated IDF Orolite 201

 When this Orolite 201 surfaced in the marketplace I had to add it to my shelf as it looked all original and un-messed with and has that look of being field worn I like so much in my helmets. 
The helmet is self is in a medium degree and is dated to May
 of 1994 and was produced by the Rabintex company and still bares its 'Tzadik' stamp SN#(00015) CN# (410-406-195) And so is not an export piece.
The IDF Zahal Desert Camouflage cover as well is in lovely used condition and post dates the helmet by a few years and is dated to 1998 .
These helmets were as well sold under contract and exported and used by the Oglaigh Na hEireann (Defense Forces Ireland) in great numbers and I have heard the only way to tell the difference between the two is if the latter is devoid of all tags which denotes them as an example destined for export.
