U.S. Air Force Maj. Philip Stein plugs a Helmet Mounted Integrated Targeting system installed on his helmet into a calibration device at the aircrew flight equipment shop of the New Jersey Air National Guard's 177th Fighter Wing March 25, 2014. The HMIT is a force multiplier, with a cueing system that allows rapid target acquisition, giving aircrew the ability to acquire targets by looking at them. HMIT is also compatible with existing night vision devices, and supports night operations while retaining full color displays via a high resolution device in front of the pilot's eye. The display technology allows pilots to place data-linked symbology over enemy targets and friendly positions. Stein is an F-16 Fighting Falcon pilot from the 119th Fighter Squadron.
