Others missions:

“NEO” missions, “Non-combatant Evacuation Operation”, is the evacuation of civilians from a country where they are in danger. Most of the time, this danger is linked to political instability, riots or even civil war. Sometimes it is also the consequence of a natural disaster: earthquake, tropical cyclone, tsunami, etc.

The “CSAR” missions, “Combat Search and Rescue”, are search and rescue operations that are carried out during war that are within or near combat zones, or on the front or even in the zone controlled by the enemy, generally to recover soldiers.

The “CPT” missions, “Close Protection Team”, these teams are used in Belgium or abroad to guarantee the protection of senior Belgian officials during risky travel.
