Targets

Target situations created for combat firing correspond to the organization of units of a potential enemy, taking into account possible losses and the tactics of his actions. Goals (targets) are set throughout the entire depth of the designated enemy’s battle formation. The number of targets for live shooting is determined in accordance with the appendix to the competition rules or training course.

The nature of the targets and their location are determined by the head of the shooting training, based on the created tactical situation, the means involved in shooting and the nature of the units’ actions.

The number of targets is determined in accordance with the number of weapons in the unit and the allocated ammunition limit. In addition, reserve targets are created, which the director of small arms training can use during combat shooting to allow the trained units to solve sudden problems, perform maneuvers, and also replace targets that have not appeared.

The distribution of targets (targets) for destruction between fire weapons is made by the head of small arms training, taking into account the forces and means involved in live shooting, the nature of the terrain on which live shooting is carried out, as well as the amount of ammunition.

The order and duration of displaying targets, the direction and speed of moving targets, and the order of simulating fire are determined by the head of the shooting training, depending on the tactical plan. The nature of the goals, intended decisions and actions of the trainees, firing ranges and time of day.

The total time for displaying targets is determined by the time required for the shooters or targets to travel the distance from the target start line to the target end line.
