Designed to fully integrate the Sniper/Observer team into a supporting active assignment. The Sniper/Observer will deliver patterns of life on simplistic, complex, and large tactical operation. The course will have a flat range review of precision fundamentals, evaluating and vetting equipment and TTP’s. The latter half of the course will have specific stringent timed evolutions to test the abilities of the Sniper/Observer on live-fire support of tactical operations. Mission support will include deliberate, hasty, and emergency assaults, under a variety of conditions, engagement ranges, assorted targets, unorthodox shooting platforms and differing visibility.
