A Comprehensive Study of Virtual Reality (VR) in Defence Combat Training

Virtual Reality (VR) technology is revolutionizing combat training by providing immersive, computer-generated environments that allow soldiers to practice and refine their skills in safe, controlled, and repeatable settings. This advanced training method enhances combat readiness and decision-making capabilities by simulating the complexities of modern warfare. VR training offers substantial benefits over traditional training methods, including significant cost reductions, the ability to simulate diverse and complex scenarios, and improved engagement and retention. The global market for virtual training and simulation is poised for significant growth, driven by technological advancements and the increasing demand for customized training solutions. VR's application extends beyond combat training to stress management and Post- Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) treatment, as well as medical training for military medics. The effectiveness of VR in these areas highlights its transformative potential in military preparedness, providing enhanced realism, scalability, flexibility, and immediate feedback through detailed performance metrics
