Movie Heroes · The Summer Flight Jacket
When Hollywood needed
the real jacket, it called Cockpit.
For Top Gun: Maverick, the production didn't imitate the Navy's summer-weight flight jacket — it ordered the real thing. Cockpit USA supplied the official Mil-Spec Nomex CWU-36/P jackets worn in the film. This is the version they make for the rest of us: durable nylon twill woven to Cockpit's specifications, with the screen-accurate Velcro patch set — VX-31, US Navy Fighter Weapons School, American Flag — and the interior VX-31 silk-screen applique. The CWU-36/P has been the military's primary summer-weight flight jacket for over 40 years, per Cockpit. Made in the USA.

The Material
Twill for the street.
Nomex for the screen.
The jackets Cockpit supplied to the film were Mil-Spec Nomex — the fire-resistant cloth actual aircrew wear. The retail version swaps in durable nylon twill woven to Cockpit USA specifications: same look, daily-wear price.
That's the one change, and it's disclosed. Everything else — cut, patches, name tag, interior applique — is the film jacket.

Cockpit USA has made military flight jackets since 1975 — which is why the Maverick production came to them rather than a costume house. The jacket on screen and the jacket here come off the same patterns.
