What is the NSN for the green flyer's jacket?

• A. 8415-01-495-0892
• B. 8415-01-010-1810
• C. 8415-01-010-1920
• D. 8415-01-010-1910

Answer: (D)

Understanding how NSNs identify a specific item helps you see why this one matches the green flyer's jacket. An NSN is built from parts that together pinpoint exactly what the item is. The first part, 8415, designates clothing, outerwear. The next part, 01, narrows to the particular family within that category. The final nine digits—010-1910—are the NIIN that uniquely identifies the exact item variant, including its color. So the green flyer's jacket corresponds to this NIIN, giving the full NSN 8415-01-010-1910. Other variants in the same jacket family would have different NIINs (and thus different NSNs), which is why those options don’t match the green jacket.
