Which of the following are the three approach methods used by SRT?

• A. Direct, Quick, and Silent
• B. Visual, Tactical, and Covert
• C. Deliberate, Dynamic, and Low Visibility (Ruse)
• D. Deliberate, Slow, and Overt

Answer: (C)

In SRT operations, you choose how to approach a target based on risk, time, and the need to conceal intent. The deliberate approach is planned and controlled, moving methodically to verify information, coordinate assets, and execute actions with precision. The dynamic approach is fast and aggressive, used when time is critical or the threat is immediate, aiming to seize control quickly. The low visibility approach, or ruse, relies on deception and misdirection to keep the target uncertain about the team’s plan, using feints, decoys, or environmental factors to mask true intent and timing. These three cover planning, rapid decisive action, and deception, giving SRT the flexibility to match the entry method to the situation. Other options mix terms that don’t align with how SRT categorizes approach methods, so they don’t fit the standard triad.
