I happened to see G.I.Joe Rise of Cobra on the Epic Channel. I noticed the G.I.Joe aircraft Howler. I noticed that there was no canopy over the cockpit of the plane. It looked like it was all steel. So would it be transparent on the inside of the plane? Or would there be a lot of sensors on the outside of the plane for at HUD display inside the plane?

I think its an almost 360 degree HUD display that gives the pilot the best possible field of vision without exposing him to danger. The plane is VTOL and can hover over an area, so they replaced the glass with armor to minimize the danger to the pilot. He still probably has a persicope that can be used to see outside in the event that the HUD is knocked out. What do they call that on an M1A2? A copala I think?

Although, my other theory is that the Howler is a drone, which kinda makes sense of the no windows/cockpit and the whole "15 minutes into the future thing" give the current media popularity of the current drone systems. In fact, the more I think of it, the more I like the idea. |
