Unity is a popular, free game making tool. There's lots of support availible online, and you can do quite a bit without even having to bother with JavaScript or C# :) It's real easy to just plonk some primitives or free models in and be able to walk round and have things effected by physics :)
NB: Unity has no problems working with the US military:

Extending
Add-ons and things for adding more features to Unity.
Asset store things
- Primitives - There are a bunch of primitive sets on the asset shop, but of the two I've tried this seemed to work the best.
- World Physics System - Simulates multiple gravity points, good for space games where planets effect your movement. I can confirm it still works in Unity 5.
- NumberFlow - Procedural texture generation.
- etc
Interface add-ons
- Simple Geometry Painter - Some .CS scripts that add nice 3-D object drawing tools to Unity.
- RealtimeCSG - Very comprehensive add-on for making levels with Constructive Solid Geometry, including being able to use curved surfaces.
Other
- UnityHawk - Run and interact with emulators in Unity.
