Until now, that is. That's because the F35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter - a joint endeavor from Lockheed Martin Aeronautics, Northrop Grumman, and British Aerospace - has become the first fighter aircraft in decades to be designed without a HUD. This is thanks the fighter pilot's new, and albeit frightening, best friend, a combat helmet which uses a miniaturized version of the HUD inside the helmet itself - Cool-Gadgets.com Rob Eurofighter helmet HOD: Yeh, right.
