The Pentagon has issued a Reuqest for Proposal (RFP) for a company to create a video game to train future space fighters. The simulation program will ostensibly teach them how to attack and destroy enemy staellites, but the program is so "black" that there's probably more to it than just that.
Defense Tech reports:
Right now, it’s hard to train folks to handle these kinds of missions. Wargaming in orbit is an expensive and risky proposition. And most – but definitely not all -- of the coolest counterspace toys are still on the drawing board. So the Air Force wants a video game “where these tasks can be trained and rehearsed in a realistic set of scenarios and simulations.”
