Both LIFT Airborne and Gentex are fielding prototype helmets for testing and final contract award which is not complete. Here's the offering from Gentex: Gentex NGFWH Regardless, they both will radically change the look of fixed wing flight helmets. Cheers, John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
airmechaja Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share Posted November 18, 2021 I don't believe I insinuated anything about the competition involved in the helmet shootout. I just passed on a very interesting you tube video. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just passed on a very interesting you tube video. I just added the information to clarify your post title which said, "USAF New Pilot Helmet - Way Cool". It will be the NEW USAF helmet if they win the contract competition but at this time it's just a prototype under test. Cheers, John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OK Phantom, I'll shut this one down myself....... No need to take offence and be a jerk. All I did was add clarity and balance with some facts with no ill intent. Maybe someone even took away a bit of insight into the helmet competition which was the sole intent of my reply. Looking over my post, I honestly can't understand what upset you so much. If that's all it takes to upset you, then it's not my issue. Ciao, JR Quote Link to post Share on other sites

habu2 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 I had the same take on reading the post title. Still an interesting video. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
