magicalflyer Member Registered: 05/05/11 Posts: 381 Loc: Indonesia	Just as seen on this wikipedia page. Well, I know it's the functions that matter. BUT, fighter pilots (at least F-35 jocks) will no longer be the "macho" men they used to be in full flight suit, with helmet and mask on, like I always see in the photographs. That guy sure looks like the weakest robot type in a low budget futuristic-themed movie.. _________________________ "It ebbs and flows, shipmate.

Dart Contributing Editor Just upgraded from intern Veteran Registered: 09/02/01 Posts: 16536 Loc: Alabaster, AL USA	I think they should paint them black and put Hello Kitty barets on them. I know I would, just to mess with people. _________________________ The opinions of this poster are largely based on facts and portray a possible version of the actual events.

magicalflyer Member Registered: 05/05/11 Posts: 381 Loc: Indonesia	Another picture of that helmet, I think. Now I swear I tried hard not to laugh when I look at it..but I am but a mortal.. Probably this is a new psywar tactic for future dogfights? The bandit will look at our pilots, laugh his ass off and lose control of his aircraft for a moment, just enough for the good guy/gal to steal a shot at him.. _________________________ "It ebbs and flows, shipmate.
