Sailors will be able to use 3-D avatars to train on Ships that are currently under construction thanks to cutting edge simulation technology being used in Australia.

Minister for Defence Materiel Jason Clare visited KBR in Canberra to see first hand a demonstration of the virtual Landing Helicopter Dock Ship (LHD), created using CryEngine® 3 -- software developed for computer games.

KBR have been contracted by Defence to create the interactive, three-dimensional replica of the first LHD scheduled to be delivered in the middle of the decade -- HMAS Canberra.

Up to 100 personnel at any one time can use this virtual Ship to participate in simulated exercises and emergency response scenarios from all over the country without having to be in the same location.

  • WTF where do I buy this game? I ASK THE RAN TO GIVE ME A COPY PLZZ!!

  • Don't know why they developing this, Dangerous Waters has the market covered.

  • because i joined the navy to drive tanks around a ship!

  • @hobomanmods yeah, they might as well be using the source engine :P

  • Looks good and all, but CryEngine looks so much better with proper normal/specular maps. At the moment it looks like there is just a basic diffuse map on everything, and it makes the whole environment seem really flat and uninteresting.
