The Israeli army is testing a new type of armored vehicle, equipped with modern technological solutions, including a controller Xbox one, used to control equipment.
As reported The Washington Post, when creating a combat vehicle, feedback from both active members of the Israel Defense Forces and teenagers from among the civilian population who are fond of video games was taken into account. In addition to the Xbox controller, the prototype combat vehicle also has large tablets that display an interface similar to what you see in traditional first-person shooters.
“It’s not exactly the same as playing Fortnite, but something like that. It’s amazing how fast and efficient they are. [молодые военные] use their [игровые] skills at work, “- said the commander of the Israeli battalion, Colonel Udi Tzur.” To tell the truth, I did not expect them to get used to so quickly. “
Microsoft has not yet commented on the use of its products by the Israeli army for military purposes.
