visual range combat

Visual range combat refers to military or tactical engagements where opponents rely on sight to identify, target, and engage each other. It occurs within the range at which soldiers, vehicles, or weapons can see and accurately hit a target without relying on electronic or radar assistance. This type of combat depends on visibility conditions, terrain, and line-of-sight, emphasizing the importance of observation, swift reaction, and precise aim. It is typical in close-to-medium distances, where clear sightlines enable effective communication and targeting without advanced electronic systems.
