<strong>Helmet</strong> <strong>Display</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Tracking</strong> <strong>System</strong><br />

<strong>Elbit</strong> <strong>System</strong>s <strong>of</strong> <strong>America</strong>’s head up display (HUD) is used on<br />

virtually all U.S. Army UH-60 Blackhawks <strong>and</strong> CH-47 Chinooks<br />

<strong>and</strong> features flat panel day <strong>and</strong> night displays. <strong>Elbit</strong> <strong>System</strong>s <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>America</strong>’s state-<strong>of</strong>-the-art magnetic helmet display <strong>and</strong> tracking<br />

system (HDTS) was selected for installation into the AH-1W to<br />

reduce the pilot’s workload <strong>and</strong> improve crew coordination. Our<br />

HDTS is a relatively simple upgrade to the existing HUD via the<br />

addition <strong>of</strong> a few components.<br />

Features<br />

• Improved crew coordination<br />

--<br />

HUD symbology allows crewmembers to know exactly where<br />

the other is looking<br />

• Eliminates confusion<br />

--<br />

Can accurately drive weapon systems or Electro-optical<br />

payload<br />

--<br />

H<strong>and</strong>s-free operation reduces crew workload<br />

--<br />

Slave or slew weapon/FLIR systems with the “big picture”<br />

rather than the “soda straw” view <strong>of</strong> a multi-function display<br />

--<br />

Always know where the payload is “looking” via symbology<br />

• Designate fixed points on the ground via “look <strong>and</strong> click”<br />

• Uses qualified components already in the DoD inventory <strong>and</strong><br />

already being flown on numerous platforms such as CH-47,<br />

UH60, V-22, F/22, F/18 <strong>and</strong> more
