Re: US Army OOB
From a Defense Analyst friend: Stuart Slade
MTHEL is actually doing quite well. My understanding is that the pre-production systems are due to be deployed in 2009, only a year behind schedule. They were going to go to Korea but I guess Iraq is a better bet now.
Basically, battlefield lasers will arrive pretty soon (at least for the US)
This has some game engine implications for WinMBT. You can actually now shoot down artillery shells and rockets in flight; I don't know how you could represent this, except as a special "counterbattery" class which can intercept rockets, etc.
