Linux joins the U.S. Air Force

The U.S. Air Force will be putting Linux onto a simulated battlefield. Rather than using rifles or missiles, the Open Source OS will be used in a six cluster system to help monitor troop movement, vehicle interaction with the supply lines among other tasks.

To me this proves that our government has full confidence that Linux is the OS of choice when dealing with critical operations that involve important aspects of our troops and our military resources.

What Do You Think?
