Reconnaissance by fire
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Reconnaissance by fire (or speculative fire, 'spec fire') is a tactic in which millitary units may fire on likely enemy positions to provoke a reaction.[1] In the Iraq war, the irregular forces use a similar tactic, in which they brandish weapons or purposely draw suspicion, in order to learn about the rules of engagement of opposing forces.
