Description
This M45 Gas Mask provides aircrew and hard-to-fit personnel with protection against all known chemical and biological threat agents and radiological particulates. Supports the Land Warrior program and serves as the mask for personnel who cannot be fitted with the standard M40A1, M42A2, or MCU-2A/P protective masks. Limited quantities available. Uses any standard 40mm filter (not included). M45 gas masks are difficult to come by in the surplus market, and it is extremely rare to run across them unissued, in complete kits including the SOG breathing hose and hood (and more!!), with protective coverings still over the lenses. Don't delay - these won't last long!
Features
- The M45 Mask is used by all Army aircrew members except AH-64 (Apache) helicopter pilots in the conduct of aviation missions anywhere in a CB environment.

The mask provides the required CB protection without the aid of forced ventilation air. The M45 Mask supports the Land Warrior program and serves as the mask for personnel who cannot be fitted with the standard M40A1, M42A2, or MCU-2A/P protective masks.
