The newest combat unit in the British Army has been conducting virtual training during the coronavirus lockdown. With all non-essential reservists training suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic, troops from the Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry have sharpened their skills using a digital battlefield on the VBS3 simulator. Personnel from the unit usually meet twice a month to train together - while that is unable to currently take place, technology allows personnel to practise key elements of light cavalry soldiering, with the software able to simulate an accurate battlespace, featuring a variety of vehicles and weapons.
