Nylon Flight · The Insulated CWU
Summer pattern.
Winter build.
The CWU silhouette is the military's modern flight jacket — and this is its cold-weather form. Cockpit USA builds the CWU-55/P from mil-spec nylon flight satin over quilted poly-fill insulation, keeping the pattern's working details: bi-swing back for unrestricted movement, two Velcro-close cargo pockets, the left-sleeve zippered utility pocket, knit cuffs and waistband, and a Velcro field for name tape. One honest disclosure: the retail shell is not fire-retardant — that spec stays with the issue versions. Olive or Black. Made in the USA.

What Customers Say
Questions
Before you fly.
How warm is it, really?
Quilted poly-fill insulation through the body under a wind-shedding satin shell, with knit trim sealing the wrists and waist — Cockpit builds it for true cold-weather wear.
CWU-55/P or Fighter Weapons?
Same CWU silhouette, different seasons: Fighter Weapons is unlined summer weight; the CWU-55/P adds quilted insulation for winter.
Is the shell fire-retardant?
No — and Cockpit says so plainly. The retail shell is standard mil-spec nylon; fire-retardant versions are military issue.
Can I add patches or name tape?
Yes — a chest Velcro field takes name tape or unit identification.
How does the sizing run?
Alpha sizes S–4XL — see the Size Guide chart. Size up if you'll layer heavily.

Yes — made in the USA by Cockpit USA.
