Furiz Posted January 21, 2024 Posted January 21, 2024 How is that at the same time? All I see is that he had to lift HMD to put NVGs on. 3
Brun Posted January 25, 2024 Posted January 25, 2024 (edited) I guess the question should have been 'can the HMD and NVGs be used during the same flight?' In contrast to - for example - the Hornet, where you have to tell the ground crew which one to install.

Furiz Posted January 29, 2024 Posted January 29, 2024 I saw a video from hasard lee where he said they had the option to switch between jhmcs and nvg during flight, it would take few minutes to do so. Can't find that video anymore guess he made it private. 1

Can't find that video anymore guess he made it private. When our pilots (F-16's) do night ops, they switch jhmcs for standard helmets, because our jhmcs don't have room for the bracket which holds the nvg's. Iirc the Belgiums switched from jhmcs to Skorpion and the latter supports the nvg's bracket, so i'd say depends on which helmet you use, but not both at the same time Planes: Choppers: Maps: Flaming Cliffs 3 Black Shark 2 Syria A-10C Tank killer 2 Black Shark 3 Persian Gulf F/A18C Hornet AH-64 Apache Mariana's F-16C Viper Afghanistan F-15E Strike Eagle Kola Peninsula Mirage 2000C AJS-37 Viggen JF-17 Thunder F-14 Tomcat F-4E Phantom
Harry.R Posted March 14, 2024 Posted March 14, 2024 (edited) In real life, no. Most Eurofighter pilots have three helmets, HMSS (HMD), Day and NVG helmet. Or below L to R, NVG, HMSS, Day. Edited March 14, 2024 by Harry.R 1
TheFreshPrince Posted April 20, 2024 Posted April 20, 2024 Hope at some point we'll get the Striker 2, which can do both! Next one will probably an Apple Vision Pro...

We likely wont get it in dcs, since it is such a big step up (colour imagery, 3d imaging, etc) but if we get pirate, we can overlay the raster image over the hmd, giving a night vision capability over the forward side and top sections of the aircraft.
