    Yep the cover from the kevlar helmet fits fine. Just make sure you don't get the older M1 helmet cover.

    Which the majority of surplus covers are. The way to tell the difference is the newer cover has 2 parallel rows of loops, runnings from the front to the back to allow the attachment of foliage. The older versions have loops which cross each other.

    Also bear in mind there are two types of cover for the Kevlar helmet. One is Flecktarn/snow and the other Flecktarn/Desert Flecktarn.
