The history of the MA-1 jacket
The MA-1 pilot jacket was developed shortly after World War II when the jet airplane was invented. The jet could fly at higher altitudes than the old propeller planes. The cold extreme altitudes meant that the old lambskin pilot jackets were no longer warm enough. The pilot needed a jacket that was warm and lightweight so that his movements were not hindered in the cramped cockpit. The MA-1 pilot jacket was produced with an olive green outer layer and orange inner lining. So if the pilot was shot down, he could hide from the enemy and make himself easy to spot for friendly forces.
