A company called C² Technologies has announced the first of seven iPhone apps for training U.S. Army crews who operate and fire Patriot Missiles. Called the Mobile App for Patriot Missile System, the training program was developed on a game platform called Unity 3D.
The app uses multimedia for training, including video of actual Patriot Missile crews, 3D animations, pictures and text.
According to a release by C², the app “covers positioning and readying [of] the Patriot Missile system to launch and fire.” Can your Android app do that?

Well, whilst C2 Technologies might have made a training app with 3d graphics from a game, defence contractor Raytheon is working on something a bit more real:
