The MK-1 Vest Cover is a durable, flame-retardant outer shell designed for use with the U.S. Navy's MK-1 Inflatable Life Preserver, primarily worn by flight deck personnel. Constructed from a high-strength blend of cotton and nylon rugged twill, it provides durability in demanding operational environments.
Featuring a sleeveless, cardigan-style design with a snap-style front closure and adjustable side waist straps, the cover ensures a secure and comfortable fit for wearers. Reflective patches on the shoulders and back enhance visibility, making it easier to identify personnel in low-light conditions.
The back harness is compatible with standard fall protection gear, allowing for additional safety integration. Functional hook-and-loop pockets and shoulder patches enable the attachment of tools and accessories for quick accessibility.
To align with U.S. Navy flight deck safety protocols, the MK-1 Vest Cover is available in multiple color-coded variations (red, green, blue, yellow, brown, white, and purple) to designate different crew roles.
This vest cover is an essential piece of protective gear that enhances both safety and functionality for flight deck operators.
