This is the F-35 pilot's helmet. It's like a magic wand and here's how!
The bad news is that they cost $400,000 each.
But... this helmet gives the pilot a 360-degree view of the airspace around the aircraft in all weather conditions, day or night, and provides clean, air-conditioned, chemical-free air through the face mask. The helmet also displays the aircraft's instruments and allows the pilot to identify targets by looking at them, in addition to many other functions, and it is custom-fitted for each pilot who uses this aircraft.
