The B-6 Bomber Jacket, part of the USAAF's flight gear, was a streamlined, lighter-weight shearling jacket developed from the heavy B-3 for "Intermediate Zone" flying, featuring slashed pockets and a single throat latch, offering better mobility while still providing warmth for pilots in unheated cockpits.

Key Features & History 
  • Purpose: A lighter alternative to the bulky B-3 jacket, designed for improved mobility in fighter planes without full heating.
  • Material: Made from sheepskin (shearling).
  • Design: Shorter cut than the B-3, with slashed front pockets and a single neck strap (throat latch).
  • Era: Produced around the early 1940s (e.g., 1943) by the USAAF (U.S. Army Air Forces).

MORE TRIVIA -

B6 JACKET (1939)

The B6 flight jacket was first produced at around 1943; just about the same time the B3 jackets were also very much in use. The jacket came as some improved version of the B3 jacket. A difference between the B6 and the B3 is its relatively light weight. The need to create this type of flight jacket would have garnered support at the period just before the start of the war, because the available fighter aircraft’s at that time lacked heating facilities. Notable among them, is the P38 air fighter that did not seem to have any heat generating ability.
