"Illegality" of games representing US hardware is challenged

Interesting read here. Textron lawyers have got dollar signs in their eyes after seeing BF3's sales figures and want to get a slice. But if EA can help overturn the trend for US military hardware manufacturers suing games developers for depicting their products, it could have a positive effect on the future of our hobby too.

Heck, if they manage it, I'd even buy their silly game to say thanks!
