RWW Posted February 14, 2018 Share #1 Posted February 14, 2018 Below are photos of an interesting cushion make by H. Koch & Sons for the F-4 CNU-111 Survival Kit. The cushion uses an SRU-6 Arctic Survival Overcoat for the "padding". The coat has been modified by cutting off the lower skirt which wrapped around the legs. It appears the coats were shortened and rehemmed after production due to the "ragged" appearance of the bottom of the coat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viking73 Posted February 14, 2018 Share #7 Posted February 14, 2018 That's a new one to me also. Very cool. Welcome to the forums! I hope you are planning on posting some photos of your F-4 ejection seat soon -Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustin Posted February 14, 2018 Share #8 Posted February 14, 2018 Now that is pretty cool, it's much like the same concept of the WWII Type B-5 kit. There is certainly a wide variety of jet age survival equipment, all very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
