Centurion1982 Posted February 5, 2019 Share #1 Posted February 5, 2019 Hi, Is this a SW-141-U from the WWII period? Were these also worn by P-47 pilots during WWII? Thanks, Marcel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phantomfixer Posted February 5, 2019 Share #3 Posted February 5, 2019 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.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBookGuy Posted February 6, 2019 Share #4 Posted February 6, 2019 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
