Let's hope indeed.

Otherwise the perspicacity of those who asked "why not use the Jag HMSS as an interim" will be obvious.....

Shurely it must have a nice little cradle in the pit somewhere that the driver can plug latest shiny Nokia / Jesus Phone toy into?

Granted GSM or 3G don't work well at 30,000 ft and cell handovers probably a little dicky at M1 point something, but Google Maps, GPS, cricket scores, and with voice activation no need to go hands off to dial.

Christ, now the MOD will actually think about this as a route to reducing comms upgrade costs....

Always thought the Jag HMSS would work well in the other single seat attack aircraft, and it'd be quite usefull in the current climate. Looks a bit complicated...

As you correctly point out it takes away most of the knob twiddling
There's a joke in there somewhere - I know it.

Have read things to suggest that the GR9 will shortly be trialed by 41sqn with a helmet mounted sight - apparently a variant of the JHMCS used by the USN/USAF. Operational sometime next year if all things go to plan, apparently

Well, maybe it will have eventually, but JHMCS is pretty useful for the air to ground mission too and I expect it's integration is mainly aimed to improving capabilities here rather than against airborne threats.

A GR9 isn't going to get into any dogfights anytime soon (hopefully) and probably wouldn't fare that well when faced with a credible airborne threat either, whether it has ASRAAM or not. Whilst a better self defence missile would be nice, I doubt it will get funded here as it would cost a fair bit more to add on than just the sight alone, though it could be added later and would benefit from any HMSS.

The F22 does not but the F35 does. It is speaker independent and very accurate. The Rockwell Collins ProLine Fusion Avionics will have it as an option and the Boeing Apache is evaluating it under an R&D program. The same system has also been used to demonstrate the benefits of voice control for interaction with Unmanned Air Vehicles.
