            This suit, made from polyester and nylon, is equipped with a hose connector that attaches to the aircraft’s anti-G system, allowing it to inflate and deflate a series of internal air bladders along the abdomen and legs. When inflated, these bladders apply pressure to the abdomen and legs, tightening the fabric around the sides and back of the legs to counteract the effects of G-forces. A manufacturer’s label with Chinese characters and a date in Western Arabic numerals is located inside the right shoulder.
