Don Medine of Tactical Command Industries (TCI) was kind enough to take DefenseReview (DR) through the TCI Liberator III Tactical Headset Suite at SHOT Show 2012. The Liberator III headset is a dual-comm (dual-communication) tactical comms headset (tactical communications headset) that incorporates an ambidextrous push-to-talk (PTT) button and radio-sharing capability. In the embedded video below, Medine explains the system in detail. Below that, we’ve provided all the info on the system we believe we saw from the TCI website.

Defense Review believes that the specific TCI tactical headset model we saw at SHOT was the Liberator III ITJCS – TACP/JTAC Secure Dual-Comm Tactical Headset with Integrated Digital Hearing Protection, rather than the Liberator III BASIC – TACP/JTAC Secure Dual-Comm Tactical Headset with Integrated Digital Hearing Protection, but we’re not sure. “ITJCS” stands for “Integrated TACP/JTAC Comms Suite Options”, which doesn’t exactly illuminate the acronym’s meaning to the uninitiated. “TACP” stands for “Tactical Air Control Party”, and JTAC stands for “Joint Terminal Attack Controller”.

The TCI display mock-up was also outfitted with an Ops-Core FAST Ballistic Helmet (combat helmet) with FAST-ARCs 4-Position Accessory Rail Connectors and mounted Contour NFlightCam helmet cam (helmet camera) system.

We should note that TCI also makes another tactical comms headset called the Liberator III LITE Secure Dual-Comm Tactical Headset with Integrated Digital Hearing Protection.

LIBERATOR III ITJCS dual-comm headset systems are exceptional headsets for TACP, JTAC, Combat Control, CCT, PJ and CAS Operators who require secure dual-comm capabilities in a highly modular communication kit. The system was engineered with direct the operator in mind and includes features and capabilities required by professionals. It provides optimal situational awareness for the operator, while offering TCI digital electronic hearing protection with Threat Compression Technology.

Liberator III ITJCS headsets provide the most realistic and accurate replication of ambient sound and state of the art digital sound processing to amplify certain sounds and compress hazardous sounds to approximately 82 dBa. The performance of the Liberator III Lite surpasses of many hearing protection products, which clip or gate ambient sounds or do not accurately reproduce environmental sound cues.

RF/EMI SHIELDING: We also provide a high degree of radio frequency (RF) shielding, which is a unique TCI enhancement, so the performance of the system remains exceptional even when used in combination with manpack radios.
