If I'm in the air and I'm close enough to see the pilot of an enemy F-35, something tells me I've got bigger things to worry about than how scary his helmet looks.

That is awesome. Check out the rear-looking periscopes on that thing. Talk about information overload.

Nothing super new about it. AH-64 pilots been using this 2nd gen system for years now. It's been over due for those fast mover junkies. Who said the military cares about style? Just blow stuff up and keep it organized!
