Eurofighter EF-2000

Eurofighter Typhoon

Цитат :

In conventional combat aircraft, the target generally needs to be in both the pilot’s field of vision and within the sights of the plane itself. That is, the plane needed to be pointed in the general direction of whatever you’re shooting at. But in the case of the new Eurofighter Typhoon, pilots can squeeze off a few Sidewinders at bogies incoming from any direction thanks to a super helmet that links their eyes to the plane’s electronic brain.

All those bumps on the back of the helmet are IR LED tracking lights. A three-sensor system above the pilot’s head follows the orientation of the LEDs, understanding it as the angle and direction the pilot is looking. Both the plane’s exterior sensors and weapon systems follow the pilot’s gaze in real-time, allowing him to spot, track, lock onto and fire upon incoming fighter craft and missiles using just his eyes and a few voice commands.

What’s more, information gathered by the plane’s external sensors along with vital performance data — speed, heading, altitude — can be projected directly onto the pilot’s visor. This appears as a 40-degree, fully overlapped, binocular display. Additional pertinent information from local command can also be piped in.

And then there’s the X-ray vision. It’s not as good as Superman’s but it’s still better than any other targeting system available today.
