Anchorage Reclamation simulation The Anchorage Reclamation simulation is a virtual recreation of the famous Anchorage Reclamation created by Virtual Strategic Solutions for the U . S . Army in the " Fallout 3 " add - on " " . It can be found and entered at the Outcast outpost in the old VSS Facility at Bailey ' s Crossroads . Development . Entries found in a terminal in the Outcast outpost detail the development of the simulation . The entry dated August 15 , 2077 describes how General Constantine Chase tested the simulation himself , but claimed it didn ' t " feel right , " and that hardware problems were prevalent . The second entry dated September 6 , 2077 tells of how Chase was making elaborate changes to the simulation which the writer of the entry felt were " divorced from reality , " and that he was sure that the real Anchorage Reclamation had never happened the way Chase portrayed it . The writer goes on to say that everyone was beginning to think Chase was going insane , but no one confronted him because they feared that the military would take over the project . At the very end , the writer questions why running the simulation was necessary anymore , since " any tactical data was mined months ago . " In particular , the VB - 02 Vertibird s were present in the simulation in full operational capacity when in fact they wouldn ' t even reach prototype stage until much later . There is also doubt over the plausibility of Chimera s as shown in the simulation , since no other source material on the Reclamation makes any mention of it . Locations .
