mwesson030 Posted January 23, 2020 Share #3 Posted January 23, 2020 I think their service life was quite short as the Navy/USMC seemed to move quickly to the HGU-55 and HGU-68. Additionally, there seem to be many HGU-33s that were converted to the HGU-55 standard by life support personnel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I believe the service life on the HGU-33 was short because this helmet was not suited well for NVG use. TACAIR started to use NVG Goggles and the HGU-33 was not easily modified for compatibility with the goggles. I still love the HGU-33 and pick them up when ever I run across a properly priced example, but I agree they are getting harder to find. Chris Link to post Share on other sites
