 Have you ever wondered how a pilot of a fighter plane breath inside his cockpit ?? A fighter plane's cockpit is a closed, pressurized, and air-locked structure that requires external oxygen delivery systems to maintain ventilation and ensure a continuous oxygen supply for the pilot. These systems are integrated to provide effective ventilation and oxygenation. Here are some of the key oxygen delivery systems used in fighter planes: Onboard Oxygen Generation System (OBOGS): The Onboard Oxygen Generation System (OBOGS) extracts oxygen from the engine bleed air using molecular sieves. These sieves separate nitrogen and other gases from the air, providing a continuous supply of oxygen to the pilot. As long as the engine is running, OBOGS offers an unlimited oxygen supply. Liquid Oxygen (LOX) Systems        Liquid  oxygen being fed into the oxygen cylinders in the cockpit of an  US airforce  A10 thunderbolt          In Liquid Oxygen (LOX) systems, oxygen is filled into a cylinder from
