Mask has the "anti-freeze" deflector fitted, with the 2 extra plastic rivets, to hold it in place.
A T-44-A microphone has been fitted to the mask, allowing it to be used in Allied aircraft.
Excellent A-14 mask and T-44-A set up, that would be very difficult to upgrade.
This mask is fitted with a rare T-44 microphone assembly. It comprises a deep chocolate coloured loom (CO-287) with an American version of the standard RAF bell jack plug (PL-179) to one end and a Type T-44-A magnetic microphone and AAF JK-26 socket at the other. The T-44 fits inside the nose section of the mask alleviating the need for a throat microphone. Used primarily in aircraft fitted with RAF radio equipment, this loom enabled AAF crews with the 8th and 9th AAF to plug their American made headgear into RAF aircraft
