PILOT AND COPILOT SEAT ARMOR
16-67
Helicopters with 7 are furnished with armor for the pilot
and copilot seats. The armor for each seat consists
of five protective panels, six mounting brackets, a
harness reel guide bracket (top bracket), and installation
hardware.
NO BREAK - WORK HARDER
The panels are made of composite material faced with a
fiber cover. Two of the panels are installed on the seat
bottom, under the cushion. One panel is mounted under
the seat back cushion and another is installed at the
outboard side of the seat bottom. A shoulder protection
panel for the outboard side of the seat back is hinged to
allow quick exit through the jettisonable door.
