schliz writes: The Australian Army has spent $2.8m on upgrading a core battlefield simulation system that it has used since 2005, to train soldiers deploying to Iraq. The software is developed by Bohemia Interactive; a version of the product is also available for Defence personnel to use on their home computers along with commercial variants. Defence says it does not consider the simulator as a gaming system.
