Military Simulation, Modelling and Virtual Training Market

Live training with actual jets and tanks is prohibitively expensive and increasingly constrained by environmental considerations, which is why the future of military readiness is being built in simulation. High-fidelity simulation now ranges from desktop part-task trainers to full-motion flight simulators and immersive Virtual Reality (VR) squad combat training, and the quality gap between virtual and live training is closing faster than most people expected. The market is being revolutionised by commercial gaming engine technology from Unreal Engine and Unity alongside cloud computing, enabling massive, geographically distributed wargames through Synthetic Training Environments that would have been logistically impossible a decade ago.
