While assaulters do their killing up close, snipers take down their targets from afar. To do take down a target from long range, a sniper must know a great deal about ballistics, or how the bullet travels through air. Simply pointing your weapon at the target and firing will not work. Sniper students train for weeks before they are considered full-fledged snipers. Competitions are held every two weeks, with the prize being bragging rights until the next competition. Snipers play a crucial role in operations as they provide real-time intelligence on the enemy's movements - being on high ground allows them to see very far, and their scopes increase the already lengthy range. Plus, if given the green light, snipers have the ability to neutralize an important target with one shot - without putting friendly forces in danger. [Typical Sniper] | [Sniper Competitions]![]()
