They have to train, have you thought about close air support (CAS), with troops on the ground, he can’t falter!
Close air support is part of modern combined arms doctrine. It should be noted that military aircraft also have the ability to attack tactical ground targets that are not close to friendly troops; this kind of deeper attack on the enemy’s rear is also part of the air interdiction concept.Close air support requires excellent coordination with ground forces, given the high possibility of fratricide (friendly fire). In the more advanced Armed Forces, there are specialists for this type of coordination, such as the Joint Fire Observer (JFO, Joint Fires Observer), Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) (US) or Advanced Air Controller (FAC) (NATO), and the Forward Air Controller (FAC-A, airborne).
Good training, good landings for you!*
