JSF helmet vid

[sbudnik1]

Don't know if anyone else has seen this, but its a link to a video on the JSF helmet and sensor combo, which is pretty crazy. http://gizmodo.com/5248464/how-the-f+35-demon-helmet-looks-inside

Cool. That thing is going to be a death ray.

so, if I'm seeing that correctly...it projects FLIR onto the visor?

yeah...like a 360 degree gen 5 FLIR on crack...overlaid with moving map and targeting data...if you double click the throttle, you can pause the game too

I hear the end guy is hard...


Personally I'm kind of skeptical about the seeing-through-the-floor part. What happens once you have to scratch your invisible balls?

I don't know about you, but I've grown to know where they are without a visual.

F-35 pilots will all be kinesiology majors

Personally I dont want to ever get fat like that.

If I ever get a chance to fly that video game I'm going to be continually scared shitless I'm going to fall through my invisible seat

My joke was in regards to familiarity... thanks for the double whammy, though

My favorite quote:
"With DAS maneuverability is irrelevant. Instead of mutual kills, the F-35 simply exits the fight and lets its missiles do the turning."

I cant claim to know much of anything about ACM at this point, but I still call BS.

Good luck getting that to work!

EXACTLY what I thought. Although according to the very end hook line (seeing everything, everywhere, all the time) it is actually a God helmet, therefore it must also be all powerful. Perhaps the helmet can scratch your balls for you.

I wonder how this exact same thread would fare on baseops.

The computer screens would all be a gooey mess.

Pilot: My DAS helmet is FUBAR

PR2: What's the problem Sir???

Pilot: The intergral targeting data becomes blurry in sectors 2 and 4

PR2: Roger that Sir...

Pilot exits shop...

PR2 (to PR1): Que?
