The Type A-2 leather flight jacket is an American military flight jacket originally invented and developed for and closely associated with World War II U.S. Army Air Forces pilots, navigators and bombardiers, who often decorated their jackets with squadron patches and elaborate artwork painted on the back. Sometimes casually referred to as a bomber jacket, its original designation was "Jacket, Pilot's (summer)", and its wartime usage was limited neither to pilots nor to bomber crews.

  • A-2フライトジャケット(Type A-2 leather flight jacket)とは、第二次世界大戦中のアメリカ陸軍航空隊の飛行兵に着用された軍用フライトジャケットである。略式にボマージャケットとも呼ばれたが、そのオリジナルの呼称は「夏期パイロットジャケット」であり、戦時中は操縦士にも爆撃機勤務の搭乗員にも着用が限定されていなかった。飛行兵達は自らのジャケットを、飛行中隊章や、背中に丹念に描き込んだアートワークで飾る事が多かった。 独立の「アメリカ空軍」が結成されたのは第二次世界大戦終結後。それまでは陸軍の航空部隊だった。 (ja)
