This next-gen interface is the primary display, allowing pilots to see through the aircraft’s fuselage or directly at a target. It provides a seamless display of flight and sensor data, giving pilots exceptional spatial orientation, superior targeting capabilities, and tactical superiority day and night.

The HMDS integrates the head-up display (HUD), helmet-mounted display, and visor-projected night vision, offering unmatched capability. Pilots can target weapons and maintain spatial orientation while continuously monitoring critical flight information.

The advanced bi-ocular system features a 30-by-40-degree field of view with 100 percent overlap.

Pilots can target weapons by simply looking at and designating targets.

The lightweight design ensures an optimal center of gravity and includes Active Noise Reduction (ANR).
