Aitutaki -
Aitutaki was originally settled by Regulans looking for a way station. This was eventually destroyed and replaced by an agricultural community. The biggest change to Aitutaki came in 2414, however, when the Principality of Regulus made the world their main training world. The planet is covered by live-fire ranges, exercise facilities, and training areas even today.

The most important of these facilities is the island continent of Simla. Located on this island are towns for soldiers to practice urban warfare tactics and fortresses that can be used for offensive or defensive training. Most importantly, however, Simla is the home of the Aitutaki Academy which has long served as the training facility for officers in the Regulan units.

Hmmm that planet sounds like it would be an excellent location for MWO training missions to take place...

Don't worry about the farmers, they make a tidy living picking up undetonated LRM ordinance, why the ground is literally littered with c-bills.
