Beaufort Flight Jacket - RAF RFD Eurofighter Typhoon Pilot Jacket

A genuine RAF-issue jet pilot flight jacket, as worn by Eurofighter Typhoon pilots. Manufactured by RFD Beaufort, this life-preserve flight jacket is a unique piece of military aviation gear, offered in used condition but still very good.

Designed with a zip-around padded collar for storage of belts or a light, this jacket is both practical and authentic. It comes in sage green, with leather or nylon-coated pocket fronts and Airtex sleeve areas that may be grey or green, depending on the issue number.

Each jacket is dated between 2007 and 2019, with issue numbers varying. While all bladders and light beacons have been removed, this is still an impressive collector's item, perfect for aviation enthusiasts, collectors, or even fancy dress events.

• Grade 1 jackets: Fully functional with minor wear, including rubbing on the left sleeve, fading, or small fabric wear-through areas.
