Save you a click: The skill in question is first person drone piloting.
I suppose flying a drone in a video game isn’t that much different than flying one in real life, so this makes sense.
It make more sense than sending the Ukrainian counterstrike players in with some kevlar and ak47’s.
Now I’m imagining a soldier on the front lines pulling out his knife and bunny hopping around the battlefield
Why the hell is this news
It’s great fodder for the “games are murder simulators” crowd?
I’m plat in ow and can’t aim an irl gun for shit lol. I’d like insta die in a real fight
This tracks. US military prefers FPS gamers. It is still debated though
