SLR & CARBINE COURSES

For those wanting to learn skills that will setup you up for success in rural environments, our Ballistic Advantage course is right up your alley.

A defensive course focussing on methods and techniques which aim to give you an edge over potential assailants and violent invaders, regardless of your environment; thus giving you the ballistic advantage. This course transfers valuable tips and skills that are relevant to the rural defence setting, which is rife across South Africa.

A Level II course which is a winner for those of you who live or work on rural farmlands, travel long distances, or show a keen interest in prepping & survivalism.

This advanced course provides instruction and techniques to armed professionals who are looking to become more proficient in low-light operations; operating in the dark.

Students will participate in a variety of evolutions which include (but are not limited to) individual movement drills, weapons manipulation, use of cover/concealment and live fire drills – all under the cloak of darkness whilst employing selective & intermittent beams of white light.

All techniques taught are adapted to compensate for the loss of dexterity and natural awareness during low light conditions. In addition, students will run through a series of exciting live fire drills under various night vision devices (supplied on loan by our instructors).

An immersive team course that places a heavy emphasis on vehicle operations and live fire engagements.  This course was developed based on extensive experience that stems from military combat operations and VIP/PSD operations around the globe.

In most cases, vehicles will be your primary method of transportation, and having a structured and well rehearsed plan to fight in and around vehicles is detrimental to survivability should things take a turn for the worse. VET provides cutting edge vehicle tactics to enhance your operational readiness and survivability. 

The course kicks off with an introduction into tactical vehicle operations, and then runs through a structured course syllabus which includes weapons manipulation in tight spaces, communications and team convoy movement, engaging from and around vehicles, shooting into and out of windshields, high threat vehicle embus/debus and cross-deck drills, fortification tips & tricks, and various evasion tactics and anti-ambush drills.

You undoubtedly know how to drive and handle your vehicle during day-to-day tasks, but what about traveling in a team with multiple vehicles, in areas of heightened risk, or during periods of unrest?  How do you get from point A to point B without a split callsign or separation within your convoy? What are the principles, tricks and techniques that can make your travel safer and more efficient, mitigating risk and ensuring a more successful arrival?  These are commonly asked questions amongst those who prepare for uncertain times. This course is the answer.

Stemmed from real-world operational experience and small team vehicle operations through combat zones, permissive and non-permissive environments and high risk areas, we have designed this course to transfer valuable skills & lessons that we have learned, over to you.

Our Convoy Procedures & Team Communications course (Tactical Vehicle Operations) covers various aspects of planning, electronic navigation, pre-travel and post-travel, roles & responsibilities, team communication & vehicle spacing, mounted driving skills and reactions to different types of possible attacks/ambush, various cross-decking drills and also tips and tricks on vehicle selection and preparation. If you are a prepared or concerned citizen with like-minded team members and a family to take care of, then we highly recommend this course.
