Glass For The Battlefield

- Q-Warrior is a helmet mounted heads up display for combat soldiers.
- The helmet highlights allied forces in blue and enemy forces in red.

- Through the helm soldiers will be able to see video feeds from nearby drones.
- The height, altitude and speed of allied aircraft can be marked on screen to increase situational awareness.
