| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Special Forces have always been associated with operations in unforgiving geography. Living and operating in mountains, deserts and jungles continues to play to their strengths in employing stealth, patience, endurance, speed and aggression as appropriate. They have come to rely on a menagerie of vehicles for the core requirements of mobility, firepower, protection and logistic support in all but the steepest, gnarliest terrain and increasingly rely on them to carry and power C4ISR equipment and provide export power to recharge personal equipment. Although they come to operate even more in small, isolated units they will increasingly have to be the most interoperable of forces. |
