We’ve had a look at German Fernspähers before, but it’s time again.

Behind enemy lines – these Specialized Scouts train to be able to infiltrate land, air or water deep into hostile territory.

Above, we see a soldier with a suppressed Heckler & Koch G36, equipped with the Eotech EXPS3-0 and magnifier G33. At first glance it looked more like a HK machine gun.

G36 equipped for training.

Below: During training on the military training area around Klietz (Germany) the scouts have the opportunity to shoot from a moving canoe. Note the laser tags.

Scouts armed with cameras – military paparazzis!

They can move by motorboat or canoe for stealth.

Amphibious transfer and infiltration.

Unfortunately, it looks like the exercise ended with a pretty serious boating accident. It is unknown at this stage how many Heckler & Koch rifles went missing…
