Equipment

The primary asset in the SAP STF is the Operator, with his specialized skill sets, working within an integrated team and support structure. Such an individual team member’s core skill set is his ability to lead and function in high-threat and stressful environments and be adaptable with swift decisive action, in order to defend, serve, and protect or change over to offensive roles.

The nature of the threat and response arena within a civilian context is a differentiating factor between the SAP STF and most other Special Forces in the world. The perseverance of life is pivotal; thus, an analogy may be drawn between the application of a broad sword and a scalpel. The scalpel presents more restrictive operational parameters that require more delicate precision decision-making and adaptive execution. The equipment used by the SAP STF reflects these parameters.
