Don’t forget the possibility of it simply being marketing lies :v
Su-57 uses HMD right?
Someone sent me this, and there seems to be a lack of HMD.
Only T-50-4 tested hmd if I rmb correctly, have not heard anything else about HMD on production felon but I think it has something to do with Russian pilots preferring hud over hmd but I am lacking the source for this

Because the ZSh-7A, the white helmet doesn’t have a built-in head mounted display as other more modern helmets—It’s a Soviet-made helmet afterall. It relies on the Shchel-3UM to have a functional head mounted display. As others 5th generation airplanes, the Su-57 fleet will have a exclusive helmet with integrated head mounted display:
ZSh-7A without Shchel-3UM
ZSh-7A with Shchel-3UM
ZSh-10B (I’m not sure if this is the official technical designation for the helmet)

In many videos regarding the su-57 I have yet to see the HMD being deployed but I suppose they could be used only for specific combat operations. But if there’s pictures or videos of HMDs deployed I’ll quickly correct my stance.
There are probably only 2-3 prototypes, and you know the period of Serdyukov, Timurov, and Shoigu’s management.
Schel-3UM isn’t used anymore iirc, it was replased with Sura and NSTS-T. But in general Russian pilots don’t bother with installing it on their helmets. One of the Su-35 pilots said that you don’t really need it in modern combat, and tall box ACM is more than enough 95% of time when WVR combat is taken into consideration.
May I know if these helmets are related and whether or not they’re capable of acting as a HMD? Also if they have a name or not.

I’m not very knowledgeable on this unfortunately, is it because previous t-50’s are renamed to higher numbers further into their development?
Ive gotten lost in this confusion too, nobody knows what the hell engine they want to equip the Su-57 with. Ahhhhh ive heard enough put an RD-33 in it.
