sweet helmet… not for the F35 though – F35 isn’t going to be exported and the guy in the pics is a Brit

WhyAmIOnline:

Uh, What? Yes, Yes it is for the F-35, Just go to the VSI site or Google “F-35 HMDS”, The first two photos are of a American test pilot and the final two are from the RAF’s testing of the same system their Tornadoes.

As to exports, Italy, the UK, Turkey are buying them. Canada, Denmark, Norway, Australia and the Netherlands are still on the fence but are expected to purchase them. Israel, Singapore and India are also interested in it.
