The US Army does similar training. There are some dumb "video game" type simulators of vehicles, etc that aren't worth much (VBS 3). However, every Headquarters from Battalion on up to Division or Corps periodically gets out their tents and computer systems to do various Command Post Exercises (CPX). It feels a bit like being on the bridge of a ship when reacting to events and issuing orders and watching units executing those orders on the (computerized and analog) map.

Anyway, probably the Navy and these space simulators are a lot more fun though.
