The Employment of Sniper in Modern Battlefield
Abstract- Snipers are important instruments on the battlefield whose casualty-producing capability is an enormous force multiplier for companies and battalions.

Additionally, the history of the sniper will be reviewed with a particular focus on their tactical employment in light of technological improvements. Keywords- Sniper; battlefield; force multiplier; momentum; employment.
