CSAR: BUILDING TOWARDS CAPABILITY

摘要

Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) is a highly specialised mission capability which is distinct from traditional Search and Rescue (SAR). Most nations invest in multi-level SAR which is often integrated with Coast Guards and paramilitary organisations like law enforcement and fire/rescue agencies. CSAR differs in the specialist nature of the mission which is focused on the recovery of distressed or isolated military personnel in a wide range of threat environments. The very nature of CSAR means that missions often exist in non-linear, non-contiguous battlespace.
