With the 2004 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) underway, the America's Army team recently put up a post with the latest happenings with the game. The post mainly focuses on some real world applications the game has been used for. Here's a snippet:

In addition to the huge commercial success of America's Army, many organizations have expressed interest in extending applications of AA in a variety of ways: education; values & cultural awareness; materiel prototyping, and operational support - to name several. As a result, we've added two new development teams:

The America's Army Future Applications Team was formed in cooperation with the Armaments Research and Development Center (ARDEC) at Picatinny, New Jersey. A highly experienced simulation team, the group is now dedicated to using and promoting America's Army in Research, Development and Training with emphasis on new and developmental weapon systems. The AAFA Team's initial developments for America's Army are the Javelin Missile, Talon Robot, XM25 Airburst Weapon System as well as the XM8 and XM307. Using the high fidelity of America's Army, the team is excited about the ability to place the virtual weapons in the hands of Soldiers and Engineers for evaluation in a virtual battlespace before real-world production starts.
