The New Soldier: Scaring the Crap Out of Enemy Pilots
The gap between gaming/movies and actual technology is shrinking. Nothing is more apparent of this than the all-new F-35 fighter pilot helmet. The mere sight of this helmet should make enemy pilots crap their pants.
Ahh yes, Master Chief would be proud.

Looks like an Alian for real, that would make me shit my pants if I saw it comming at me.
It looks sweet…. when are they coming out with the different color screens? I’d like to have one of those while I drive!
