Red 6 is transforming military pilot training with augmented reality (AR) technology, enabling pilots to engage in virtual scenarios during real-world flights. The company claims it can drastically reduce training costs while increasing pilot numbers and readiness, likening its AR technology to a blend of Pokemon Go and Fortnite - but with the future of America on the line.
