SCORPION® helmet
The Scorpion HMCS provides full-color, dynamic flight and mission data, projected directly and safely into the aircrew’s line of sight via a large field-of-view, fully transparent, rugged, optical waveguide assembly. This capability allows the user to remain head-up and eyes-out of the cockpit with greatly enhanced real-time Situational Awareness (SA). The added dimension of full-color symbology and video imagery dramatically increases the user’s ability to rapidly interpret and correlate vital SA information, resulting in lower task saturation and increased efficiency.
- Precise head-steered weapons and sensor cueing
- Full-color, dynamic conformal color symbology overlaid on the real world, clearly visible in all ambient lighting conditions
- Rapid target acquisition and hand-off to sensors and weapons
- Sensor video capability with full-color overlay symbol suite
