Revolutionary helmets???



The title of this by British Forces News was "The revolutionary helmets that are changing lives"...Pretty pompous title for pretty standard fare in western air forces.  I wonder where they're getting the idea that this is new and amazing?
That's perhaps a bit snarkey.  Let me restate.  The experience that BAE is gaining from this project should help on work being done for the F-35 alternate helmet.  Good stuff but hardly revolutionary.  Thanks to Grim for bringing me down a bit.  Hate Weds....like he hates Mon.

  1. BFBS do like to sensationalise a fair bit. But it is a step forward for Tornado and it will be helping them on runs in Afghan. But you're right, its being overblown.
