Now if i was @kizvy i would make a bug report about that. After all, there is zero evidence of MiG-29K or M or 35 being compatible with Sura-M

Wonder if the soviet/russian air tree will ever get a true hmd that displays targets rather than what we have currently.
From what I heard the best bet is Su-57 and possibly the later Su-35s but I have very little knowledge of it
MiG-35 should be equipped with НСЦИ-КОС HMD system. While there is no photo evidence of it installed on a helmet of a pilot, there is photo evidence of its sensors being installed in the cockpit itself.
well there is, for an egyptian pilot

this is one handsome Egyptian. I phrased it poorly, meant to say that there is no photo of a Russian pilot in a cockpit or at least near the aircraft
I have some VR experience (NOT THAT ONE) but no AR, i don’t quite get why would you make “AR” part of interface outside of the helmets visor, wouldn’t clarity (or brightness) be much greater from within, monocle style ?
Or is that thing in the middle of helmet a projector? If so its quite outdated… perharps as effective, but still… Curved transparent oled screen would have been better and you could watch ‘Senrai maidens’ from periphery…
it is
i dont think that transparent OLEDs are a thing
because they need a backlight to work

Sometimes traitorous thoughts come through my tinfoil hat and i start thinking that some vehicles are hyper historical for irl training purposes
You are mistaken, LCD’s need backlight, oled screens are self light emitting, here is LG and Samsung has similar
that has been somewhat new tho?
hasnt it?
how are they faring against constant G overloads, excessive vibration and crashes?
4-5 years, and “small factor” ones were available from 2014(?) so at this point they surely have 10+ years at this.
First prototype is 2009 (i assume actual corpos have early access)
Ayo give me 10k imma vibe code the universal HMD with open UI, all those high end ‘aviation’ clubs like OAC or Rafael just sitting on their ahh
Claude Do not make mistakes, well its a thin glass or plastic, glued against acrylic backing it wont shatter, and be as durable as ‘last’ gen canopy’s (the ones that go yellow), while yeah it could be scracthed, and with its almost non existing weight you would need 50G~ to destroy it and at that overload everything else is already **unconscious
(your nokia or iphone can go 45g~ no trouble)

Yeah, but for how long. You want this equipment to last for decades, not years
i hope its sarcasm
Yes, i know that it would be more complex, but essentially not that much more (you may hire me uk xd)
Ask ppl who put their phones into their back pockets → 20-30kg of mass which would be essentially like 40+g force, so even an Iphone would last fine, but dont fly & text or you may lose your license
I mean its not like we are in 80s when electronics were heavy…

it’s s bit different, otherwise such complex tests wouldn’t be run on aircraft avionics. i watched MiG-29K documentary and they literaly put part of the control panel into a centrifuge with buttload of G force to ensure that it will hold. By your logic, just making a very fat person to sit on it would be enough

Yeah and no, while static / dynamic loads aren’t equal, they can be somehow translate as not surviving 100kg static load meaning it wont survive past 40gs, not directly but still
Anyway my point is that “mil” standards aren’t 100% bs, but somewhere in 75% range and some ‘consumer’ hardware could be safely within margins of G overload, for example iPhones apparently are actually rated up to 256G’s so yeah you call all day pull 12gs in your personal Mig29, so designing a HMD aint that much difficult hardware wise. Personally i barely hold myself in 5-6G (BMI 22)
tldr: consumer shit can and will work iin 12g overloads, maybe not for 40years, but neither the airframe after pulling that many G continously => so go do your own HMDS xd
press x to doubt

Now I am waiting for the 35 to come… Although given how horrible datalink looks on HMDs with VR I am not so sure
