A helmet mounted display 30 includes a display source 31 arranged to be directly imaged by a primary relay optical arrangement 32 having relay optical elements 33A, 33B and 33C. Light exiting the primary relay optical arrangement 32 indicated by ray traces 34A, 34B and 34C continue towards a visor 35 which is arranged to reflect incident light to a exit pupil located in a convenient position for a viewer 36. The display source 31 includes a light source, beam splitter, reflective liquid crystal display and a display source relay optical arrangement to provide an output image at an output diffuser screen. The image at the output screen is then directly imaged by the primary relay optical arrangement 32. Should the reflective liquid crystal display require modification or replacement with a newer model, then the display source 31 can be redesigned to accommodate the new reflective liquid crystal display rather than re-engineering the primary relay optical arrangement 32 at greater expense.
