first answer: The military started to use computer aided simulation in around 2001, in march. Mostly with target practice to save paper.

second answer: I was in the US Army, I was involved in fairly detailed computer simulations (war-games) in the mid-1980's. The US Air Force & US Navy would have begun using them in the 1970's. These were simulations involving units, not individual soldiers or pilots.

The first electronic digital computer used by the military in the US was ENIAC. It was built specifically to generate Artillery Firing Tables and was used for that purpose for many years after the war. However its first real problem solved was for Los Alamos to see if Edward Teller's first thermonuclear fusion bomb design could work. The answer was no.

From the beginning. The ENIAC was designed with the sole purpose of computing military ballistic data for howitzers.
