History of Weapons & Aircraft Technology Through Video Games

From Arrows to F-35 Joint Strike Fighter Jets, weapon technology has developed amazingly since its origins in hunting technology. In this class we will delve into history of weapons, by actually using the weapons themselves! …That is, in video games of course! We will use various video games to demonstrate the use, pros, and cons of each weapon technology, and get a feel for why advancements were made at each stage. We will not talk restrictively about handheld weapons, but also about aircraft, and anti-aircraft technologies, tanks, etc…

Stay tuned for a full list of the games to be used for this class. (Will be limited to T for Teen games)
