Special forces are one of the, if you like, the tasks, the charter - what's called "prime target assassination" that's used. That's done in many different ways. Wherever it is, in a very traditional sense, wherever it's a sniper, or what we call free sniper, four sniper option where you've got four snipers on different levels, different directions. You've got a one in four chance of hitting this guy. Or, wherever you're doing an explosive ambush, making explosive devices, car bombs, and all that sort of stuff. That's part and parcel of our job anyway. That stuff does get used.
