Internet Warfare
 

do they have some kinda of internet warfare thing? I talked to a guy tonight who said he is in the army and works in a internet warfare unit.

think he's full of shit, was just curious if anyone else may have heard of this though.

Ever heard of War Games?

military has been doing it for years,

yeah man, efnet irc... didn't you know?

yes, they have guys that do that

it's looks to be truth, but it's do't mean he really work there :)

Are you kidding? Of course the Army uses the internet and have specialized units that do a multitude of tasks.

Consider that armies generally get the cream of technologies years before they are released to the public and in some cases there is an attempt not to reveal new tech to public, it's not the other way around.

that could be fun job :Graucho

I can't comment much about the US Army, but I can comment on the Navy - they do have such a department. I know this as a fact.

Actually the Army has been doing that for years, the American military is very advance in terms of internet and war games, basically all new technology.

wouldn't be fun at all, the Army has spent millions and millions of dollars figuring out how to take the fun out of everything! Trust me on that one :Graucho

Its no different then your typical $50 war simulation computer game,

its just that the military's verison is just around a few billion dollars more

where do you think the internet came from...... the US military

pretty sure it was so science dept's at universities could work on projects, Stanford if am not mistaken is where it started. When I got on the internet all they had was Newsgroups, which are still over 100,000 Heck read about this years ago. think in the 1980's. My 1st internet account was
$20.00 for life time membership

Who the fuck do you think join our sites?????

Surfers!!!! lol

America's Army

There, Developed for the US Army, and is handed out by recruiters.. build a online solider and play online on missions along with squads.

i can't stop playing that game. and to think its free and its so damn good.

version 1.9 just came out.. game went from 400 megs to 700 heh

The military funded everything,, it was called DARPA project i believe,

The whole theory behind it was if a nuclear bomb hit New York, then people would still be able to communicate by rerouting it to other networks

yea like playa said it was funded by the US military for top secrect communications between military bases..mainly incase of war..

the military was nice enough to allow the schools to use it later on which led up to the internet we now have... and the US military now has a totaly diffrent private internet.
