Awareness levels unmatched
While stealth is perhaps the
most obvious advantage of the
F-35, it also introduces situational
awareness levels unmatched by
other aircraft.
A single large screen
dominates the cockpit, divided
into two principal displays that
provide a wealth of information.
The helmet worn by the F-35
pilot can display imagery from
the distributed aperture system
of infrared sensors placed
strategically around the airframe –
in effect, allowing the pilot to look
through the aircraft’s skin.
