The USS Forrestal Carrier Pilot’s Vietnam Flight Jacket honors the valiant pilots who fought in the Vietnam War, especially those connected to the aircraft carrier USS Forrestal. It is a unique and historically inspired item of outerwear. This particular style of flight jacket honors the navy aviators’ military background and their distinctive place in the annals of naval aviation.

The jacket is most likely based on vintage military flying jackets from the Vietnam War that carrier pilots wore. This might have a silhouette similar to classic designs like the G-1 or MA-1 jacket. We have also USN Deck Jacket. The choice of material not only adds to the jacket’s authenticity but also contributes to its durability.
