Stealth being a requirement may result in a commander directing a ______ CBRN R&S mission?

• A. Mounted
• B. Dismounted
• C. Aerial
• D. Amphibious

Answer: (B)

Stealth in a CBRN reconnaissance mission means moving with as little detectable presence as possible—minimizing noise, heat, tracks, and overall signatures that could reveal your position or route. A dismounted team can pick concealment, use terrain, and avoid leaving vehicle tracks or exhaust that would alert the enemy or spread contamination. Vehicles, aircraft, or amphibious platforms inherently produce louder, more visible, and more detectable footprints, increasing the chance of detection and complicating decontamination or contamination control. So, proceeding on foot best preserves stealth while still allowing careful sampling and observation.
