Hi Guys!

I went to the Surface Warfare Association's expo today to check out all the cool gizmos the Navy wants to buy. They had everything from gas turbine engines to radars, to SM-3 missiles on display. They also had Dangerous Waters (the professional version) on display at the Sonalyst's booth. It was pretty cool. I got to talk to the guys to work with it, and they told me about some of the cool things they've done with it, including interfacing it to other wargames like MAGTF XXI. I also voiced some of my ongoing gripes with the civilian version, but it was still neat.

I also got to turn donuts in the ocean using the Navy's LCS simulator that they had on display. 50kts baby! VROOOOOOOM!!!! It was much more fun than the DDG simulator, where you'd give it some juice and eventually it'd move.
