USSF Countersniper Techniques

After a Taliban sniper kills an Afghan Commando, USSF uses a proven countersniper technique to neutralize the sniper's position.

And so it goes...

Best counter sniper tactics, either CAS, or arty.

It's all a lie, the SF guys would lead you to believe there was an enemy sniper on that hilltop. Actually they just wanted to do some landscaping there and didn't have the necessary equipment. 2000lbs later, landscaping done!

Typical. You can't believe anything on the internet these days!

Thanks for clarifying.

And I thought TTPs were not to be discussed.

Why do you think we pick fights with people that have neither CAS, nor ARTY???
