mvsgas Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Wonder what happened to coating the muzzle vicinity with a (copper based, can't remember) paste for corrosion protection from the powder gasses? It shoould be all there AFAIK. It would not stop the pain from geting dirty when they fire the gun. Maybe they are not able to clean the area because the paint is to porous and may have been staind when the gun fired, just a guess. To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoGas Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 (edited) How much they costed? For the F/A-18E, F about 60.000 US dollar the helmet, I guess it is the same price for the Polish F-16`s. Edited November 19, 2008 by MoGas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These contract prices contain a whole a lot of other stuff besides the actual helmets like: spare parts, training, documentation, required avionics upgrades etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
