1st Lt. Anton King, 75th Fighter Squadron pilot, poses for a photo wearing an HGU-55/P helmet fitted with hybrid optical-based inertial tracker and day visor on February 11, 2020, at Moody Air Force Base, GA.  The helmet provides A-10C Thunderbolt II pilots a central interface for everything they need, from the oxygen supply to communications to flight instruments.
