CAAT Red conducted bounding Humvee drills with various mounted weaponry, held phase lines for tactical vehicles to push forward, held positions within hides, fired a Javelin shoulder-fired anti-tank missile at an enemy tank hold and fired 12 Tube-launched, Optically tracked, Wire-guided TOW missile systems at an enemy position.
