Visit, board, search, and seizure (VBSS) is the term used by the United States military and law enforcement agencies for maritime boarding actions and tactics, designed to capture enemy vessels, to combat terrorism, piracy and smuggling, and to conduct customs, safety and other inspections, as employed by modern navies, marine and maritime services, military and police forces. ==United States Navy training== Training begins with SRF-B (Security Reaction Force Basic), and continues with SRF-A (Security Reaction Force Advanced),which includes the trainee's endurance of OC spray (Oleoresin Capsicum, pepper spray). After both SRF-B and SRF-A are successfully completed, a candidate qualifies for VBSS school. The initial training continuum includes three courses lasting a total of eight weeks (SRF-A, SRF-B, VBSS), with some team members receiving additional follow-on training. Skills taught in VBSS training revolve around Close Quarters Battle (CQB). Training consists of proficiency in tactical movements and shooting, hand to hand offensive and defensive combat tactics, rappelling, searching, non-compliant combatant detention, and multitudes of other combat kinetic team and personal skills. Some units, known as Helicopter Visit, Board, Search, and Seizure (HVBSS) teams have been trained to fast rope aboard vessels from helicopters. All sailors in the Navy are eligible to serve aboard a VBSS team, but those who aspire to join a team have to be approved by their ships command. Being approved does not guarantee inclusion on a VBSS team, as it is possible and not uncommon for candidates to wash out of VBSS school. The attrition rate for VBSS is 25-30%, on average. USN VBSS teams are generally armed with Mk 18 or M4 carbines as well as Mossberg 500 shotguns and Beretta M9 pistols. The body armor is generally of the kevlar, law enforcement type with ballistic plate inserts and a buoyant tactical vest that doubles as a life preserver.The majority of US Naval ships that deploy VBSS teams are smaller ships such as destroyers, cruisers, etc. VBSS teams are used to combat illegal narcotics and arms trafficking and piracy. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Visit, board, search, and seizure」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
