CPAP therapy is widely used by people with sleep apnea (a-pnea -> no air -> hypoxia), and there’s plenty of research available on different approaches to therapy which might offer help with this particular cause of hypoxia.

It isn't that type of hypoxia. We are dealing with histotoxic hypoxia. Instead of producing 100% oxygen the OBOGS system is malfunctioning and providing some combination of gasses that are toxic.

Depending on the aircraft a lot of these fighters already have free flow and emergency forced flow .
