The liquid suite (libelle) is (or will be) used only on Luftwaffe EFs. The UK pilots use the same suite as the Raptor pilots (Combat Edge + ATAGS). It's made in UK by ML Lifeguard, a company from UK. Also the Finish pilots use them on Hornets. Some details here: http://www.sci.fi/~fta/physiolo.htm


Yeah! In Italy we don't need it.. since yesterday we were flying the '104.. never been heard talking about G-loc's !! Laughing

Any idea if Combat Edge + ATAGS will be used on the F-35s as well? I suppose it makes sense that it will eventually become the new standard fighter pilot attire for the US. That is unless the F-35 program is drafting up their own even newer G-suit.
