Bohemia Interactive is extremely pleased to announce that the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence (UK MoD) has purchased an enterprise license of Virtual Battlespace 2 (VBS2â„¢). The UK MoD VBS2â„¢ license, distributed through Calytrix Pty Ltd (http://www.calytrix.com.au), provides a robust, flexible simulation for use in collective and tactical training, mission rehearsal, experimentation and terrain/3D model visualisation for AO familiarisation. The decision by the UK MoD to purchase an enterprise license of VBS2â„¢ marks yet another important milestone for the product and further validation that the Real Virtuality engine remains one of the most flexible, extendable and cost-effective military simulation tools available today.

The VTK will provide a range of editors that will enable every aspect of the simulation to be easily modified and configured; to the extent that the product could be repackaged by any typical user to suit a new training requirement or demand.

Messiah 2 Posted May 3, 2007 sure beats the old simulation program they used - think it used the old Half Life engine as a backbone - if you root around defence images you can find a few screens of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
