„Mixed reality simulator gives me a realistic training experience comparable to flying in a real plane. Using an F‑16 simulator, I can rehearse tactical operations, which would otherwise be impossible to prepare for in the real world except for in a simulated environment. I was able to fully operate the cockpit with my hands and train in any scenario.“
