"Autocom’s true noise cancelling microphones are related to 128dB
which is equivalent to about 185mph."

That ought to deal with the aircon :-) and integration with mobiles, but
it's designed for bikes and microlights and for fitting into a helmet,
although possibly an open-face helmet. It might be worth having a word
with them though, or with these:

www.sonic-comms.com - comms for services personnel
www.hearingprotection.co.uk - F1 & specialist comms

BTW I hope you're demanding hearing protection in that environment...
