Peoples Liberation Army of China using Arma 3 for training.

PLA training with Arma 3 in custom urban maps.

This is the 71st group of the Peoples Liberation Army. They are using Arma 3 to train with custom urban maps. in a Zeus scenario.

The Peoples Liberation Army of China uses Arma 3 to train for military operations in urban terrain. This coupled with custom terrains and custom buildings modelled in Blender, they are using this combination to prepare for warfare using a Zeus scenario. This is very interesting, they are using Arma 3 for military training, which is against the EULA of the game. But tell the Peoples Republic of China that and see what they say. China does not care about human rights or even the EULA of a computer game. They do their own thing.
