I. Preface
This guide has been designed to assist the S.W.A.T Unit in

its day-to-day operations. The policies and procedures
described in this manual are set by the S.W.A.T Units Command
and Los Santos Police Department Command and deemed
necessary for proper department operation. When properly
developed and implemented, a policy-procedure manual
provides staff with the information to act decisively,
consistently, and legally. It also promotes confidence and
professional conduct among staff. No exceptions are to be
made to this S.O.P without consent from a member of Police
Department Command

qualification has its own unique training and usage in the field. Upon passing
training you must pick one of the three qualifications, you are able to get a second
qualification.
Sniper - The role of the sniper is give the team overwatch and takeout threats from
a distance with accuracy. Snipers will be in sharp shooting with both weapon
platforms, getting into efficient overwatch positions, and shooting from a
helicopter.

them selves, the team medic will be there when more aid is needed. The team
medic will carry more supplies and be better equipped than the standard SWAT
