Recon Pipeline
The Recon Pipeline develops operators within MSOT 8213 – Task Force Raven in advanced reconnaissance, surveillance, and fieldcraft. This progression ensures the MSOT can gather intelligence, observe targets, and survive in hostile environments for extended periods.
Progression
SERE-C → SOF Sniper → Advanced Reconnaissance
- Note: Both SERE-C and SOF Sniper are required before attending Advanced Reconnaissance.*
Responsibilities
- Train operators in surveillance, target detection, and reporting.
- Provide precision overwatch through the SOF Sniper certification.
- Ensure operators can survive and evade capture in hostile environments with SERE-C.
- Advance into full-spectrum reconnaissance with Advanced Reconnaissance once prerequisites are complete.
Summary
The Recon Pipeline equips Task Force Raven with the ability to observe and report on enemy forces with precision and stealth. By completing both SERE-C and SOF Sniper, operators earn the foundation to attend Advanced Reconnaissance, ensuring only the most skilled and resilient Raiders progress into long-duration intelligence collection roles.
