mmm has probado a poner en el google equipamiento basico de francotirador?
si lo pones en ingles, salen muchas cosas, entre ellas...
1. Silva Compass, pencil and crib sheet book. The book includes wind, elevation and angled shooting charts. It also includes Stalk orders, Arty Mortar info, notes on Air photography and radio codes. It also has room to add more cards or info. Note the orange flash card, used for signalling Aircraft in daylight hours (a system we use for Heli pick-up). The compass is in mils, lighter and quicker to use than the issued prismatic, however on Ops the prismatic is also taken as it is more accurate and durable (the Silva compass would still be taken)
2. A masked Maglite torch, spare torch and secateurs. Torches masked to minimise white light for reading Maps and A.P. at night. Spare torch is carried in case one goes down. Secateurs are used for cutting natural camouflage to attach to Ghillie suit, weapon or Hide etc.. It is also used for finalising a fire position, cutting that one annoying twig that obscures the target area.
3. Cheek rest, made by Hunters of England, good comfortable cheek piece made of neoprene helps ensure spot weld when firing.
4. Camelbac Mule, Sits well in centre of back, allows Sniper to stay in position and take fluid. This system has enough stowage space to carry basic survival food, Med kit, Weapon cleaning kit and Notebooks etc.. it is camouflaged with a purse net covered in ghillie to match Jacket.
5. Personal medical Kit, Field dressings, crepe bandages, tublar grip, triangular bandages to stem bleeding and dress wounds. Airway, tourniquet and haemostat, Airway for buddy (can't put it in yourself) tourniquet and haemostat to stem bleeding, these are preferred options in battle, I have many friends in 2 & 3 Para who died because tourniquets were a No, No! during the Falklands campaign. On many peace keeping Ops you are close to medical aid (although if you follow the progress of the 1st British soldier to die in Macedonia you'd think differently) On Ops such as the one I was deployed on in Sierra Leone it would've be down to the Sniper pair to keep each other alive. A friend of mine lay for 12 hours in the open with a severe head injury in the Falklands, no one could get to him due to Enemy fire. This is why we teach self-help, the man must get himself into cover, try and remain calm. Lying down helps to slow the metabolism and calm the casualty reducing the heart rate hence slowing the pumping of the blood. The individual then applies direct pressure to any open wounds and applies dressings. Each man carries morphine, this can be used so long as the guy carries out the SOP of leaving the used syrete in view.
6. Nikon 800 Laser Range finders. I carry these as another aid to judging distance. They are temperamental dependant on light conditions. I also use Mil-dots in my scope, the range stadia in my scope and My Map to work out the most probable range. Range estimation is the biggest factor that results in a miss, on operations I want every edge possible to ensure a hit. We are issued Leica Vector with the .338 these are excellent but bulky, heavy and if you're buying your own way too expensive. The Nikons keep the weight down and I will carry them at all times without thinking twice.
7. British issued Sniper Pocket book, small containing enough information to remind the Sniper and shooting record sheets, so logged shots information can be carried.
8. Water bottle and metal mug, U.S. bottle is smaller then ours so suits compact belt kit better. The Mug can be used for cooking in emergency situations or between deployments when you cannot get to your bergan.
9. Civi Bum/Butt bag type pouch cammed to hide the black. Used for carrying Binoculars. I tend to use Spotting Scope when on the move, the Bino's have reticule pattern so are a must when directing Arty/Mor fire or observing for longer periods. On the side of pouch is the tripod for my Spotting Scope. Ammo pouches for Magazines, Grenades carried in pockets
10. French hexi stove, spoon and brew kit, French cooker very compact good emergency stove. Tea, Coffee, beef stock and sugar for morale infusion when situation allows. Never underestimate the power a hot brew can muster, especially in colder climates. The Sniper however would not brew up when deployed, but this kit is still carried in case you are split from your kit between deployments.
11. Enough Rifle cleaning kit to keep weapon on the road, pull through for 5.56mm and 7.62mm Rifles. Flannelette, Shaving brush for cleaning purposes, Small screwdriver to tighten wpn parts, issued rifle oil and break free oil. Also a sweat rag for wpn cleaning tasks. Also carried Camouflage cream, spare elastic bands, lighter and whistle. (Elastic band for cam attachment, lighter for fire! and whistle for exercises/international distress signal)
logicamente, tambien te haria falta tu binomio, el spotter, que es el que designa los objetivos, calcula distancias, etc
