Bat eyelashes, destroy enemy fighter -- at least if you're wearing one of the 2,000 new Joint Helmet-Mounted Cueing System (JHMCS) helmets from Boeing just ordered up by the Pentagon. By simply lining up a yellow targeting cross and pressing a button, pilots can aim weapons and sensors onto whatever they happen to be looking at, in the air or on the ground. In addition, the JHMCS display all sorts of other useful information, like altitude, airspeed, G's (upper and lower case), angle of attack, and Kenny Loggins playlists.

Also displays aircraft altitude, airspeed, g's and angle of attack on the visor, as well as tactical information, to increase the pilot's awareness of the state of his aircraft and the combat situation.

yeah, great. It would be very useful to me on my way to work. So I can line up the motorbike riders while I'm in my car and shoot em with my imaginary gun.
