Game development toolkit being built for Air Force

Next Generation reports that the United States Air Force has commissioned a custom game development software toolkit, WarCon, for its military instructors. By making game creation possible from the point of view of non-programmers, rapid prototyping and a large variety of game scenarios will be possible.

It seems the Forces are realising that video games are a useful tool in both their education and outreach programmes; perhaps other countries will follow suit.
