For Special Forces, any Special Forces unit increases difficulty during training and ramps it up to deadly levels during mock drills.
Once in real combat, they become like lions exerting full strength to catch a rabbit—they try to reduce the operation's difficulty, utilize all available weapons, and eliminate any obstacles that can be eliminated. Ideally, the mission is completed smoothly and safely.
