Flight Jacket

Flight Jacket is an Outer torso item in The Long Dark. It adds 3°C warmth and 5°C windproofing. Waterproofing is 50%. It weighs 2.5 kg.

Within the Outer torso slot its 3°C warmth ranks #5 of 19 entries here — mid-pack for that layer.

At 1.2°C per kg its warmth-to-weight ratio ranks #84 of 100 clothing items with both values recorded — a poor return for the weight.

Its 10% protection is a small edge in a predator struggle, though mobility and warmth matter more in most runs.

Note the 5% mobility penalty — it slows you slightly, so a lighter inner layer can be the better trade when you are carrying a heavy load.

Crafting notes: it repairs with 2 × Cured Leather; 60 minutes; 40% condition and harvests into 3 × Cured Leather; 30 minutes.

Verdict: Overall Flight Jacket is a 3°C Outer torso piece, best reserved for cold-weather loadouts where the mobility hit is affordable.
