F-35 Gen III Helmet a Generational Leap in Technology

Woodrow Bellamy III
[Avionics Today 09-04-2015] When the first two F-35A Lightning IIs touched down at Hill Air Force Base (AFB) on Wednesday, pilots were using the latest generation helmet to fly the fifth generation fighter jet. By integrating three advanced technologies — helmet-mounted display, head up display, and visor projected night vision — the Gen III Helmet Mounted Display System (HMDS) allows the F-35 to become the first tactical fighter jet in 50 years without a traditional Head-Up Display system (HUD).
