1987 Top Gun Maverick Victory Ltd Russian Blood Chit G1 Gemuine Distressed Lambskin Flight Jacket

This is a genuine G-1 Navy distressed lambskin leather flight jacket made in 1987 by Victory Ltd. as seen in the movie Top Gun in size Large.  This is a faithful reproduction of Maverick's jacket with many of the same patches on the front, the back is different and features a "Blood Chit" in Russian.  This brown leather jacket features a removable brown fur collar and has just the
"right" amount of wear to make it look authentic.  There are two button flap waist pockets with two hand warmer pockets behind them at the waist.   There is an interior slip pocket at the inside left chest for maps and aviators.  The interior lining features a WWII map of France for the Normandy Invasion.  The interior tag is printed in Korean where the jacket was made, but says genuine lambskin, 50% nylon/50% acetate lining when translated.  Why buy a modern copy rushed out to capitalize on the new movie when you can have an OG real deal?

The back has a large "Blood Chit" sewn on it that bears a large printed U.S. flag with the following inscriptions in Russian and English "Ya Amerikanets".  Please communicate my particulars to American Military Mission Moscow".  Since Maverick and the Iceman were fighting MiG-28's, it makes sense to have a Russian Blood Chit on the jacket!  At the base of the Blood Chit is "Copyright Victory Ltd, 1987".  Typically, the Blood Chit contained these instructions in case of capture:

(1)  Learn by heart the Russian phrase "Ya Amerikanets" (means "I am American" and is pronounced as spelt).
(2)  Carry this folder and contents in left breast pocket.
(3)  If you have time before contact with Russian troops, take out the folder and attach it flag side outwards to front of pocket.
(4)  When spotted by Russian troops put up your hands holding the flag in one of them and call out the phrase "Ya Amerikanets." 
(5)  If you are spotted before taking action #3 do NOT attempt to extract folder or flag.  Put up your hands and call out the phrase "Ya Amerikanets".  The folder will be found when you are searched.
(6)  You must understand that these recognition aids CANNOT be accepted by Soviet troops as proof of bona fides as they may be copied by the enemy.  They should however protect you until you are cross questioned by competent officers.
