Picked this up recently and I’m trying to confirm exactly what I have before I decide what to do with it.

My current guess is HGU-26/P-type USAF flight helmet with PRU-36/P-style dual visor and Sierra MBU-5/P oxygen mask. The mask has 1960s/early 1970s component markings, the side receivers are General Tire FSN 1660-440-5553, and the visor hardware has Gentex/Airtronics markings.

The part I’m most curious about is the tiger-stripe cloth cover. It looks old and custom-fitted under/around the hardware, not something recently thrown on.

Does this look like a correct Vietnam-era / early 1970s setup? Also curious what a realistic value range would be.

Thanks!!
