Hi,

 

Is this a SW-141-U from the WWII period?

 

Were these also worn by P-47 pilots during WWII?

 

Thanks,

Marcel

Appears to be WWII...and doubt the fighter guys wore them...there was a PTT switch on the throttle or control stick IIRC on fighters..

Never seen any photos or other mentions of fighter pilots wearing this - doubt if it could even be used by them. Before mask-mounted microphones become available pilots had plenty of throat mikes, like the ubiquitous AAF T-30.
