Fight as a team inside structures—CQB-focused, force-on-force training for 2–4-man elements.
COURSE DESCRIPTION
When it comes to close-quarters battle, coordination beats chaos.
Small Unit Tactics is a scenario-driven, force-on-force CQB course that teaches 2–4-man teams how to dominate confined spaces through movement, communication, and coordination. Students will operate in structured environments against live roleplayers, applying real tactics in real time under real pressure.
You’ll run room entries, hallways, stairwells, and threat-rich environments as a fire team—learning how to stack, flow, cover angles, communicate under stress, and take control of dynamic environments. Every scenario ends with a debrief that breaks down performance, communication, and tactical decision-making.
This is the course where you stop training like an individual—and start fighting like a unit.
