Auction for leather pilot helmet+ goggles ww2 +pilot oxygen mask km 32 from 70s -80s from USSR soft leather helmet+goggles+ pilot oxygen mask brand new !!!!rarei have helmet+ goggles +pilot oxygen mask from aviator ,militaria muzeum from Ukraine ShL-61 series of helmets started to roll out from production line in 1961 and was a further upgrade of the original ShL-50 series of helmets. It is possible that originally ShL-61 was a simple upgrade from ShL-50 that only featured new mask hooks on sides, on top and on the bottom of the helmet. But since at the same time Soviet designers decided to use this helmet as a liner helmet for the ZSh-3 shell, a pad on top of the helmet was introduced. This is my version of how this helmet was developed, but it is entirely possible that helmet was from ground up designed to be used with ZSh-3 helmet and oxygen mask hooks were simply put there to accommodate newer masks. As noted above, main difference between ShL-50 and ShL-61 is the pad on top of the helmet. Another noticeable feature is the new hook on the top adjustment strap on the helmet. It was to be used with newer oxygen masks. Just like the ShL-50 series, ShL-61 was also produced in winter (ShZ-61) and tropical (ShLO-61) versions. Right view of the ShL-61. Note the pad on top and mask hook on the rubber cover of the earphone. Close up on read more
