Description: The Soviet Sniper is a specialty unit, wielding a scoped SVD rifle. This rifle, while slow to fire, is very powerful and accurate, making it ideal for picking off infantry at long range. Most enemy infantry, with some exceptions, can be killed with as little as two shots to the centre of mass, or a single shot to the head. Keep in mind that, as a sniper, your kit is very light and offers very little protection. You’ll need to keep your distance and stay hidden as much as possible in order to avoid getting killed.
