Hi Guys, picked up this helmet the other day and I was wondering if anyone of you would have an idea about the unit this HGU-34 helmet would be related to ?

Can you show the earphone jack on the back of the helmet. It might help with identifying the type aircraft it was used on. Can't really tell from the pics.

 

Hold on I think it is VF-161 here is a patch from the unit. Helmet must be from the F-4 Phantom days.

Wow, that was fast Chris ! Do you know them by heart ? Well, congrats and thanks for your insight. Looking at the connections, looks like a patrol helmet, what are your thoughts looking at these extra pics post-162520-0-63519700-1553165497_thumb.jpgpost-162520-0-34663100-1553165534_thumb.jpgpost-162520-0-17330800-1553165559_thumb.jpg?
