==History== The development of a new standard steel helmet began in the 1930s. After tests and trials, this helmet was officially adopted by the Red Army in December 1935 under the name "Red Army Helmet Model 1935" ("красноармейский шлем образца 1935 года"). It was because of the introduction of the steel helmet that changes were made to the uniform of military personnel - and the field service cap was introduced as standard headgear. After the helmets began to be issued to the troops in 1936, they began to be known by their short abbreviated name (SSh-36).
