These pictures show a Belgian M1 clone used by the Belgian Airforce. The helmet is painted light blue and has a rough texture.
Inside the rim its stamped LS80, I think this means LS = "Linnemann-Schnetzer" a German manufacturer. Still producing sheet metal products.

VDP 80-4 is possibly VanDePutte year 1980, could have been an intermediary.
