Concentration extrême pour le tireur d'élite en vol à bord de la gazelle. Un exercice de tir difficile à cause du manque de stabilité.
Avec 150 cartouches par minute, la mitrailleuse 12,7 mm (arme automatique lourde), permet au commando d'atteindre un objectif à 1200 m à partir de son véhicule léger de reconnaissance et d'appui (VLRA).
Début de la mission pour l'équipe de recherche du 13e régiment de dragons parachutistes (13e RDP). La dépose en corde lisse, à partir d'un hélicoptère Caracal en vol stationnaire, exige sang froid et maîtrise totale.
Descente rapide car le vol en stationnaire est l'un des moments où l'appareil est le plus vulnérable.

Deux unités de l’armée de l’air font partie des forces spéciales : l’escadron de transport 3/61 "Poitou" et le commando parachutiste de l’air n°10 (CPA 10).
Le groupe "investigation-exfiltration" est spécialisé dans les actions de contre-terrorisme. Ici, leur mission est de trouver et d’extraire une personne d’intérêt stratégique.
ہ l’extérieur du bâtiment, des véhicules tactiques sont postés pour couvrir tous les axes d’attaques possibles.
Véritable caméléon à l’œil de lynx, le tireur d’élite longue distance peut appuyer un groupe action.
Certains chuteurs sont entraînés pour sauter avec des caisses entières de matériel (gaine pour charge lourde). Ils sont poussés hors de l’avion à plat ventre sur leur précieux chargement.
Si le soleil brille encore en altitude, au sol, la nuit est déjà tombée lorsque le commando s’élance de l’avion.
La dérive sous voile est un excellent moyen de s’infiltrer au delà des lignes ennemies sans être vu.
