Typhoon test pilots begin Night Vision Goggles trials

Trials have begun of the new Night Vision Goggles for the Eurofighter Typhhon, with initial testing by Typhoon pilots now taking place at BAE Systems' Warton site.

Adding to the very latest technologies that the Helmet Mounted Symbology System offers along with the night compatible cockpit, the FENN NG2000Ti goggles will provide pilots with x-ray like vision right through the night.

Night Vision Goggle trials are ongoing and demonstrate the continued efforts to integrate the latest technologies into the Typhoon system.
