I have been trying to collect information of helmets that are used with ACES suit. There seems to be clearly more information of older helmets but not these newer ones.

Do you know where I could find even approximate measurements of these helmets or neck rings? Or do you know how large is the pulley wheel (that holds helmet in front)that is holding the wire in front? I could use this information for calculating measurements.

Has anyone seen high resolution front or side images of these helmets (without astronaut inside)?

Any information could be helpful!
