I'm gonna take a guess. You didn't click and watch the GoPro videos of JF-17 flying because PAF gave access to this guy to JF-17 and J-10 fligtline. You think a think thank would spam the thread with clickbait videos? Either you shooting from the hip or I am. You decide.

@Michael Do you think JF-17 HMD is customized version of J-10 C?

Another interesting observation, the video where block-3 performing high g/tight turns. Pilot wore a simple tactical helmet and head tracking/position sensors are not attached in the rear vs when the pilot wore the helmet and sensors are attached in above post. Does it mean a pilot wearing HMDS would be restricted in executing High-G turns or would avoid Dogfights and would rely more on PL-10 and HMDS to execute high boreoff sight shots?

Looks more like it depends upon mission requirement. When needed, pilots would fly with HMDS.

But the J-10C videos shows a different trend. They wore the HMDS and executed tight turns in them!
