EA's Battlefield 2 is a first-person shooter game taking place on the modern-day battlefield. AerotechTelub is purchasing a development license for the technology powering the game with the intention of developing training simulators and demonstration facilities for the Swedish defense.

AerotechTelub chose the Battlefield 2 technology because it enables simulation of large geographical areas. It also gives the player the possibility to co-practice different roles in the Swedish defense, and the ability to train for international efforts. The Battlefield 2 engine can also be applied to support the development of new management methods within the military.

Battlefield 2 is under development at Digital Illusions and will be launched in spring 2005.
