… but only when you’re left-eye-dominant.

The IHADSS, or Integrated Helmet and Designation and Sighting System, includes a monocle that sites over the right eye of the pilot and co-pilot gunner. There are four IHADSS modes: cruise, transition, hover and bob-up, each with associated flight, navigation, weapon, sensor, and targeting information that follows the crew member’s line of sight.

The Modernized Pilot Night Vision System, or M-PNVS, can also be projected to the monocle for thermal night vision along the pilot’s line of sight.

Yeah…

I suspect a factor in the additional mfd buttons is given how divided a helo pilot is at pretty much all times during flight, time spent “inside” the aircraft is kept to a minimum by giving the MFDs fewer menus by way of more buttons. So rather than flow-charting your way through options screens you’re presented with more options directly.

No display of the new FLIR tech.

I’d be surprised to see that appear before Vulkan.

Me as well, it’s a monumental task, every single object needs another (few!) Layers of texture!
