VBS3 is integrated with Saab's BattleTek 5

Saab Grintek introduced BattleTek 5, its constructive simulation system, at ITEC 2017 in Rotterdam. The command and staff training system has been integrated with VBS3 and has been used by the South African National Defence Force.

According to an article in  Jane's 360 (http://dogsofwarvu.com/forum/index.php/topic,4758.0.html) Saab's BattleTek "provides an immersive experience for commanders using an Oculus Rift head-mounted display, enabling them to view the battlespace in a virtual environment." Saab's BattleTek was also featured in Shephard Media's coverage of ITEC.

Looked up some concept art from this, seems they're taking the futuristic thing a bit too far for a sim that's supposed to be realistic:
