Special Warfare: Special Reconnaissance
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 сен 2022
- Special Reconnaissance operators possess a superior level of skillsets and undergo rigorous training that helps them complete their mission to the highest standard. These Special Warfare Airmen are mission-focused and adaptable regardless of their environment. When it comes to battlefield awareness, it’s their job to collect and exploit key information and tilt the battlespace in our favor.

Random person: I have never known, seen or heard about an SR operator.
'Random person' 2: Let's keep it that way.
Haha, When I was in the Marines the Force Recon guys used to tell people they were in "bulk fuel".
They should have called them Special Tactics Advanced Reconnaissance or STARs.
When a random dude on RUclips thinks of a better name than the U.S. government
nah but he's not wrong, get chris redfield in the hoe@@codeeskaggs8107
I like that.
That would of been badass just like in resident evil
@@codeeskaggs8107nothing wrong with that
Formerly known as Special Operations Weather Team (SOWT), the Special Reconnaissance (SR) career field has recently transitioned into a role dedicated that is tailored more for all-source intelligence, surveillance, & reconnaissance versus the traditional environmental reconnaissance they performed as SOWTs. While short term weather forecasting will remain in the SR’s skillset, it will no longer dominate SR’s training and mission focus. Skills include:
Weather forecasting
Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance (ISR) gathering
Forward observations & scouting
Surveillance & Target Acquisition
Special Reconnaissance Operators are among the most highly trained personnel in the U.S. military. They receive training in surveillance and reconnaissance, multi-domain electronic warfare (EW), long-range precision engagement and target interdiction, small unmanned aircraft systems, preparation of the environment, personnel recovery, and advanced special tactics skills.

Ghost recon of the air force
You Children know nothing at all whatsoever on things Militaria. Special Reconnaissance, Formerly known as Special Operations Weather Teams ( SR / SOWT) , is a United States Air Force Special Operations Command Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance ( USAFSOC ISTAR) asset that are neither 🕵️ nor 👻 , but, are Special Warfare Airmen, Sine Pari.🇺🇲🇺🇸‼️‼️
Nope. They’re weathermen. Special Recon is a fancy name is all.
@@offspringfan1288you’re 4 years behind
@@offspringfan1288No they are not Weathermen. Different training different mission. They have a different perspective for Air Warfare targets and threats.

It is! Going to talk to a recruiter about it this weekend. Been my dream to be part of it forever.
air force figured out that giving an over glorified team of Ron Burgundy weather reporters with a special operations budget was a bad idea.
I felt like his explanation was a biography of my civilian life. Certainly was raised and live to honor and uphold a standard that isn’t always social norm in every day society. @Airforce @ @spaceforce 🗽🔔🦅
Is there any documentd mission wher SR was separately/solely used?
Is it unheard of for people attending SW Prep and/or Assessment & Selection to go SR to PJ or vice versa? Or is it a set track once you sign your papers?
Benjamin, If you qualify by passing the Physical Aptitude Stamina Test, you will attend Special Warfare Recruiting/Development before going to Basic Military Training (BMT) where you will be in a Special Warfare flight.
After graduating BMT, you will go through Special Warfare Prep Course, then go through Assessment and Selection (the difference between Assessment and Selection (A & S) vs Indoc; members may request to change jobs during Assessment and Selection).

What happens to prior service if they complete A&S but aren’t selected? Needs of the Air Force or the boot out?
Prior service members receive their job prior to leaving for tech school.
Pam

From what I’ve gathered it’s not a selection like raiders and green berets. If you make it through you most likely will be able to proceed.
I have a question. If I have served in KATUSA, then can my experiences be recognized after getting citizenship? I really wonder this.
Yes of course

Hi, so sorry to bother you again. I have been searching for other jobs in the Air Force that I might like. So far I’m interested in the special reconnaissance and pararescue but my parents won’t let me go into the battle field. I still want to do it event though they won’t let me. Should I keep through with this?

I see that 42 is the max age. How many people do you get that actually come close to that max age? Do old farts have a chance in SR?
Out of curiosity, if anyone is able to answer this, are officers able to enter SR?
Eli, SR is an Enlisted career only.

I thought recon was the marines
Each branch has their own recon unit. For instance the US Army has a Regimental Reconnaissance Company. The US Air Force’s Special Reconnaissance comes from their Special Operations Weather Team and it transformed into SR around 2019. They used to just insert deep and collect weather data as well as other information and now do plenty of reconnaissance for the USAF as well as other special operations units.
what can Air Force sr translate to in civilian life?

Do they train CQC
Since they can deploy with other special operations like Rangers, SEALS, etc, as well as on their own, they will learn how to CQC and fight in various ways to keep up with the various units they’re with.
SOWT
Was what it was that career was changed and turned into this. Not sure how much of the SOWT career stayed.
Do they see action?
What would you guess bro?
@@jordanedwards9681
Idk. That’s why asked the question.
Yes, our special warfare members may "see action." They are exceptionally well-trained for all missions.
Pam
Air Force and Space Force Recruiting Service
@@Bori85Listen son. youngsters want to see "action", Intelligence-surveillance-reconnaissance does NOT want to be seen, does NOT want to engage. Engaging ("action") defeats their mission.
I really don't understand why the Air Force needs to be on the ground. That's the area of responsibility for the army and the Marine Corps. As far as pure reconnaissance goes. There's none better than Force Recon. Period. Anytime, any place. No questions asked.
They work for SOCOM not the Air Command bro. There was no dedicated intelligence and surveillance special operations unit until they added the SRs
Air Force does plenty on the ground. From their security forces protecting airbases, Tactical Air Control Party for providing close air support for the Army, Pararescue proving casualty evacuation and emergency medicine for pilots and other special operations forces, Combat Controllers setting up drop zones airfields landing zones, and yes Special Reconnaissance to provide some reconnaissance support to SOCOM and the Air Force. Special Reconnaissance used to do just Special Operations Weather Team things when deployed but are now doing all sorts of information gathering like using handheld drones.
Sure they do all that stuff now. I'm just saying there wasn't a need for it cuz we had people on the ground for that already. Everybody just wants a piece of the pie. Just like when I was in Grenada. The biggest klusterfuk around. Just saying there wasn't a need for it.. not saying they are dedicated. Nothing negative. Just that it wasn't needed because we had people with those skills already.
You have to understand to I was in the Marine Corps in the 80s. Attached to Second Force Recon. Everybody should just play in their own backyard.
Do the guy that says there was no dedicated intelligence and surveillance special operators. Well I would like to know what the hell I was doing with my team in Beirut Lebanon. In 1983 and 1984.
Ah so this is where the af learns to do what us joes have been doing already 😂
This is a old recruiting video already released before nothing new.
So Combat weather, but it didn't sound cool enough. So they made this because recruiting sucked. Cool cool
Crazy how people will watch a 3 minute long video and immediately forget everything they just watched.
@@definitelynotthefbi4412 It's basically a Shake-n-Bake course for CIA field ops recruiting.
Unless of course the Air Force is using it just for their specific needs. But that is not the case.
Can one still pursue this if they have very mild color vision deficiency? Can easily differentiate red / green. I have nothing possibly stopping me expect this.

Marine Recon
Sounds like a plan.
Ladies and Generals: America introduces the Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance Asset of Air Force Special Operations Command ( ISTAR AFSOC) , known as Special Reconnaissance ( SR) , Formerly known as Special Operations Weather Team ( SOWT).🇺🇲🇺🇸✈️🪖💣💥🪂🤿🇺🇸🇺🇲‼️
I think you misunderstood my questions. With the Army, Navy Seals, Marine Corps. Were there reconnaissance assets I don't see the need for an Air Force One as well. It's in the name Air Force. It doesn't apply to the ground. That's why it doesn't make sense. Army has several assets to use, Navy has theirs, the Marines have theirs. Let's just spend more money I'm at the Air Force do it too. Does it make any sense, mentally, and financially. Never said they couldn't. Just think they shouldn't. I'm not dissing Air Force. My father joined the Army Air Corps in 1942. He also fought in the Korean war. Was with him when the Air corps became the Air Force. I grew up in Air Force brat. There was no real need for the Air Force's special reconnaissance.
If you have such a huge problem with the Air Force Special Reconnaissance, why don’t you become Secretary of the Air Force and get Special Reconnaissance disbanded? Why don’t you go talk to your Senator and explain to him/her why Special Reconnaissance is a waste of time and money and that the Air Force should disband it? Perhaps the Air Force should get rid of the Pararescue jumpers as well and let the Marines and Army and Navy handle search and rescue. How about getting rid of TACP and let the Army call in air support or just let ANGLICO handle all air support missions?
Marine Corps is self-sustaining, and Marine Recon does recon for MAGTF. Army recon elements does recon for Army, and SEALs does recon for NSWC. They're all playing in their own backyard. Air Force SR locates potential airfields, guides direction of air and missile attacks, and prepares the environment. As you can see, these are all tasks that the Air Force would handle. Although SR supports other SOCOM units, the Air Force comes first.
In all this butthurt stuff that people wrote. Why does everyone get so bad out of shape when I brought up just a question. I served in Force Recon for 6 years. I have four combat tours. I think I know all about the other branches of services capabilities and such. It was just a thought. All these people that have negative responses to my question, I have a question for you people. When and where did you serve and what branch. What was your MOS? Because if you really were a PJ, or an Army ranger or whatever the case may be. But I have a stinking suspicion the negative naysayers, probably didn't serve. And if you did again what was your MOS. Completely completely misunderstood but I was saying. There was never any ill-will intended. I work with Army rangers, I worked with SF. I worked with Navy Seals, Anglico in Beirut. All fine units. So please it was just a question to throw out there. From my experience I was just saying why. I was not saying they all suck which was all the negative comments were thinking. Grow up.
