Goggles, Flying, Mk VII, RAF & USAAF
€495.00
Tax included
Rare genuine WWII British Mk VII flying goggles, introduced in the RAF in July 1942 when the Mk IV were considered obsolete.
The upper mount was intended for attaching a sunshield (not included), which was widely issued in Malta and North Africa yet less commonly observed in the European Theater of Operations. The Mk VII were replaced by the now famous Mk VIII from October 1943 onwards.
Second version, fitted with an adujstable webbing strap.
Just like 1940 Pattern flying boots and 1941 Pattern life preservers, the Mk VII flying goggles were also issued to USAAF pilots and aircrews to compensate the lack of American equipment in 1942-1943.
Perfect condition. Air Ministry markings are clearly visible in the center: 22C/826 2024.
