That's interesting, piloting via external camera + display vs. windshield.
my first thought was 'wow, must be fast.'.
addendum : this link[1] mentions the use of 4K cameras. here's a nice picture of the camera array [2]
p.s. the camera array looks as if it might be a non-planar FDM print, which is cool in its' own right.

"Currently, the X-59 is in the system checkout phase, ensuring all systems are seamlessly integrated and functional. A planned maintenance and modification stand-down was needed due to parts that took five months to arrive. This delay pushed the aircraft’s inaugural flight, initially slated for December 2023, to early 2024."
