About this product

Product Information

This new photo documentation is the first book ever to cover in detail the history and development of military flight helmets from the post-World War II era to the present, and includes over 120 different helmets and their associated equipment such as oxygen masks, boom microphones, inner helmets etc. U.S. Air Force, Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard flight helmets discussed range from standard fighter, bomber, transport and helicopter models, to high-altitude, special purpose and experimental types. Foreign helmets covered include British, French, German, Swedish, Canadian, and rarely documented Polish, Chinese and Soviet/Russian models. Also covered is an extensive selection of U.S. and Soviet/Russian space helmets. Extensively researched this book contains over 1000 images, most in color, and includes multiple-view photographs as well as detail views. Specific details of each helmet include manufacturer, proper designation, unique features, accessories, periods of use, branch of service(s), and aircraft in which is was used-selected export users are also included. Mike Breuninger is also the author of United States Combat Aircrew Survival Equipment: World War II to the Present-A Reference Guide for Collectors. Alan Wise is also the author of MIG Pilot Survival: Russian Aircrew Survival Equipment and Instruction-see page 14 of this catalog(both titles are available from Schiffer Publishing Ltd.).

  • Jet Age Flight Helmets

    This is a book which is a" must-see " for the fighter pilot lovers or fellow flight helmet collector. This is the book with comprehensive information, together with lots of valuable, historical pictures that tell you all about the flight helmets(as well as pilot oxygen masks)from WWII until nowadays and or different variations of helmets of different countries all around the globe. Currently i'm living in Hong Kong and since i couldn't find any location to obtain this book domestically, i bought this one from E-Bay at a reasonable price and it's a super nice experience. The book go directly in front of my front door and what i have to do is just pick it up from the postman and enjoy. This is a nice book, strongly recommended ^v^
