Deciphering this Cockpit USA Jacket

Hello, I'm a novice when it comes to flight jackets and I recently purchased my first one used. It seems to be a collaboration between a company called BEAMS and Cockpit USA. For the life of me, I can't find any info on the internet about it. To me, it looks a lot like this one: https://cockpitusa.com/products/classic-naval-aviators-100-mission-flight-jacket-without-patches

But of course, it has the BEAMS make as well. If anyone had any info, that would be great. Pics attached.

I love the jacket fwiw.

I think Cockpit USA is the current iteration of Avirex, which both made/make some nice, if not upper-tier repops.
I've had a few including two 70's era horsehide "A-2" jackets.
Well made, and a step above the mall jackets we all know and love.
That said, their prices and imagination with regards to models (jackets not people) is entertaining...
See their website if you want to know what I mean.
