Army Aircrew Combat Uniform or A2CU is a non-combustible military uniform.
It increases comfort of the crew (military equipment/drivers/pilots)
and provides protection against fire during preflight preparation,
refueling, during flight and when performing other operations in aviation.
There are seven pockets: two thighs, two outer pockets on the legs (for tools),
on the left thigh - a pocket for a knife and two side hanging pockets.
Adjusting the waist is made with slings and additional loops under the waist belt.
For sewing the A2CU form, Nomex fabric (Nomex) is used,
which includes 92 percent of Nomex meta-aramid fibers,
5 percent Kevlar and 3 percent of P-140 antistatic fiber.
Nomex fabric has a low thermal conductivity,
providing protection against burns of II and III degree, stable antistatic and ergonomic.
The fire-resistant and heat-resistant properties of the fabric,
laid down at the molecular level, are constant and persist throughout the entire life cycle.
In addition, Nomex has the property of self-extinguishing, it does not burn,
does not smoke, does not melt and does not form smudges, and tolerates washing and dry-cleaning.
Kevlar, which is part of the fabric, improves the resistance of the material to rupture
during sudden flashes of flame and at the same time increases the level of human protection.
Under the influence of heat, the pores of the fabric are closed,
which reduces the penetration of hot air inside.
With prolonged exposure to heat, the fabric is compacted and forms a strong charred surface
that continues to provide optimal thermal insulation of the body.
Composition: 92% Meta-Aramid, 5% Para-Aramid and 3% Conductive Fiber
