I dont think thats planned, but who knows because on the dev it was WIP
iirc. The first HMD helmets the Typhoons were equipped with couldnt be used in tandem with NVGs. (Striker 1 iirc, and this is what they are modeling in game as well I beleive)
This is mentioned in fact in the book “Typoon” by Mike Sutton, a Wing Commander with 1 Fighter Squadron and led the first missions of Op Shader in the Typhoon.
So it likely would mean it was HMD or NVGs and not both at the same time. Which isnt something that can probably be done in game. Given the lack of any meaningful night battles, Id take the HMD being fully modeled and worry about NVGs in the future if/when we get night battles.
Its not until Striker 2 helmets that have the integrated NVGs

Thing to put two aim-9m instead of one amraam on the wing
In theory, we could get 12 Aim-120 + 2 9L/i

I’m assuming this is what it meant but I kinda doubt this would be added, could be wrong.

Maybe that’s just a visual reconfig of the Loadout, so that aim120 doesn’t take up one space under the fuselage, but two aim120s in one space?
Girl-designer has put aim-120 onto brimstone launcher?
Where is this from? Also what are those black missiles near the fuselage?
Brimstone.

Those are Brimstones speaking of it, it seems like the Amraam’s is held on the pylon used specifically for brimstones and Bae systems posted this on X before, probably for promotion or something . .
Seems credible enough as a source maybe

Link to the X post pls?
HMSS-compatible NVGs were tested in 2013 at Warton. Fenn’s NG2000Ti, which was a modified version of the RAF’s NG2000A.
Adding to the very latest technologies that the Helmet Mounted Symbology System offers along with the night compatible cockpit, the FENN NG2000Ti goggles will provide pilots with x-ray like vision right through the night.

I don’t know for certain if they have been accepted by the RAF until Striker II enters service though

I dont think they did that, as the feed from the PIRATE is integrated into the HUD, so probably into the HMD too
