Intelligent, high-definition JHMCS II debuts at Paris Air Show
PARIS, 17 June 2013. Elbit Systems of America LLC is introducing the Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System II (JHMCS II) high-definition, color, smart-visor system at the Paris Air Show.
The JHMCS II, an upgraded and improved version of the JHMCS, operates in both day and night mode and is making its debut at Paris Air Show.
"JHMCS II is more intelligent, more capable, and more affordable," says Mark Hodge, vice president business development at Elbit Systems of America LLC. “We worked alongside warfighters to create a superior system that improves information access for the flight crew."
Providing pilots with intelligent vision for over 15 years, the JHMCS has been a combat-proven helmet-mounted display for fixed-wing aircraft, including the F/A-18, F-15, and F-16.
The JHMCS II product family has been developed to meet the needs of the modern military aircrew and provide a superior level of situational awareness, says a representative. Flight crews fly JHMCS around the world and during combat operations.
"Pilots flying with JHMCS II will have a decided advantage when they observe, orient, decide, and act," Hodge adds.
Attendees can see the JHMCS II in Hall 3, Booth E111.
