Tradeoff is that it is pretty heavy, which makes neck movement under high G maneuvers all but impossible. Luckily there are two pilots in J-16 so only one of them needs to wear it.

It looks bigger in the first image, doesn’t it? But I think this is due to the visor being down.

They're most likely different. Another possibility is the helmet in 1st picture is the one on 2nd and 3rd picture, but with an outer casing installed.
