'''Military Academies''' are [[installations]] that provide [[leaders]](naval and ground force officers, researchers and civilian administrators) and trained crew personnel for your fleet. 

If you have multiple academies on the same [[colony]], their effects will be  scale linearly and leaders are gained throughout the year (more academies means less time between new leaders). Leader types are randomly chosen, with naval officers being the most common choice. Military Academies are one of the few installations that require no [[Trans-Newtonian]] technology.

==Leaders==
Mechanics vary slightly between versions. 

[[C-Leaders|C# leader training]] happens at a rate of ten leaders per academy per year. The academy commandant's leader type affects the odds of getting any specific type of leader:

{|border="1" class="wikitable"
! Commandant Type !! None !! Naval !! Ground !! Governor !! Scientist
|-
!Naval Odds 
| 64% || 92.8% || 32% || 58.88% || 58.88%
|-
! Ground Odds 
| 28% || 5.6% || 64% || 25.76% || 25.76%
|-
! Governor Odds 
| 4% || 0.8% || 2% || 11.68% || 3.68%
|-
! Scientist Odds 
| 4% || 0.8% || 2% || 3.68% || 11.68%
|}

If the leader type being generated is the same type as the academy commandant, you have a chance for improved leader skills. For each skill where the commandant has a skill level of 20% or better, the generated leader will roll twice for that skill, and take the better of the two results. This is a binary condition - skills at 50% are no better than skills at 20%, and skills at 19% are no better than skills at 0%. 

[[VB-Leaders|VB6 leader training]] happens at a rate of five leaders per academy per year. I don't know of any detailed stats or breakdowns, but it's generally similar to C#, and may be the same. 

==Crew==
[[Crew]] training works the same way in both versions. Each academy produces (1000/training level) crew per year - that is, 1000 level 1 crew, 500 level 2, 333 level 3, 250 level 4, or 200 level 5. Higher-level crew result in your ships starting at a higher [[crew grade]] level, unless the ships use conscript crews (in which case they will not use, or benefit from, your trained crew). 

==Shutting Down==
Military academies cannot be shut down.
