Check out the images from what the F-35 pilot sees when he’s wearing the new headgear that allows him to “see” through the aircraft using cameras relaying images to projectors inside the helmet.

Assuming the pictures given to the public are anything like what the real pilots see, the view from the controls of a Nintendo Entertainment System and the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter are about the same quality.

They liken the resemblance to something out of a Terminator movie, but I can’t help but hear the shrieking scream of a tie-fighter flyby when I see the helmet.

What’s a Nintendo NES go for on ebay these days anyway, $50? Divide by 100,000,000, lets see, carry the one… include paypal’s current fees of 1.9% + $0.30 USD for the hundred thousand dollar tier, you could buy 1,951,219 Nintendo’s instead! Oh wait, I forgot to pay for shipping.
