Virtual combat convoy training

Article Abstract:

The vulnerability of resupply convoys to ambushes by insurgents and terrorist groups is one of the most sobering and unpalatable lessons stemming from the ongoing operations in Iraq. Realistic training for convoy duties can be implemented through a very extensive recourse to simulation and virtual reality systems as an indispensable preliminary phase to live-fire training and exercises.
