Hi!

This is my brand new HGU-55 helmet, I've had it for about a month and a half and I use to fly the helicopter or the aircraft.







I also have a clear visor to use at night or when the sun's gone.

Now, all we need is a figure that is issued with this helmet.... (USAF PJ perhaps?)

Thanks for sharing!!!

No problems.

There are quite a few countries using that helmet, obviously the USA, but also Canada and a couple of European ones.
