  • Original Item. Only One Available. The HGU-39/P is a chemical, biological, oxygen helmet and mask used in the 1980s. The basis of the HGU-39/P is an SPH-4 helmet without the visor cover. Cast aluminum oxygen mask receivers and Air Force communication components complete the basic helmet. A chemical hood can also be laced over the helmet and mask. This is just the basic helmet without any of the attachments.


    This example retains the inner lining with GENTEX headphones. The helmet retains its label:

    The contract code denotes a date of 1978. The helmet’s suspension is in good shape though there is some heavy wear.
