Projects a view of the scenery outside the MH. As the projected image shares the MH’s field of view, the cockpit sits on a spherical base allowing the display to follow the knight’s movement; when looking down, the panel shifts downward appropriately; when looking up, the panel moves upward, etc. Thus there is no need for a 360° monitor. The only time this is not the case is when displaying a direct rear view onto the screen. "Turning away in combat" is obviously suicidal, so when a rear view is absolutely necessary the fatima can route the rear camera to the front display.
