The crescent shaped helmet

If you think the 前立 is "crescent", he must be Date Masamune. It seems neither crescent nor fern leaves to me. It's more likely what's commonly called 鍬形.

Great Info. But in the PBS japan documentary , Tokugawa Iyeyasu wore the same helmet. I am ware that Date Masamune. was famous for the crescent helmet but the red war dress reminds me of the Tokugawa Bafuku

Tokugawa Shogun 's ﾅｽ窶｢ﾅｾS窶ｹﾃｯ窶伉ｫ

Do you mean ﾂ静披?敕ｵ窶堋ｦ by red war dress? Then, how do you differenciate it from, for instance, Takeda Shingen 's generals? The picture is just a general image of ﾅ?Zﾅ?窶｢. There's no specific model, I believe.

Tokugawa Shogun's 歯朶具足

Do you mean 赤備え by red war dress? Then, how do you differenciate it from, for instance, Takeda Shingen's generals? The picture is just a general image of 鎧兜. There's no specific model, I believe.

But thanks to the Media the red war dress just reminds of Tokugawa Iyeyasu and no one else

Tokugawa Ieyasu didn't ware 赤備え by himself. The most well-known 赤備え is Takeda Shingen's generals' ones, as I wrote. Later, an Ieyasu's genaral Ii Naomasa took over Takeda's army, and became famous as 井伊の赤備え. You or the TV program missed something.
