ABOUT: WE ENHANCE SMALL TEAM CAPABILITIES

Since 2011, The International Special Training Facility has provided covert tactical and technical training, products and design to Special Forces, Law Enforcement CT-TSU and Government Security Services & Agencies. ISTF by policy does not provide its services to the private sector.

Our expertise has ‘silently’ enhanced the effectiveness of small teams operating in complex Rural and Urban environments, ensuring their success when executing covert manoeuvres. “When you build in silence,
people don’t know what to attack”

TRAINING: COVERT TACTICAL & TECHNICAL

ISTF training courses are developed and delivered by operationally proven subject matter specialists who possess real-time knowledge and experience of working in complex environments.

Our courses cover a wide spectrum of special reconnaissance, covert surveillance procedures, methodology, tactics and tradecraft, our main pillars include:

• Covert rural camera deployments
• Reconnaissance action & Tactical imagery
• Mimicry, concealment & fabrication
• Non-attributable technical solutions

Our mobile educational training teams [METTS] can deliver select courses at your location if requested.

FACILITY: A SAFE & SECURE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

The International Special Training Facility offers a safe & secure learning environment, discreetly located in Hereford in the UK, situated in a rural setting, not overlooked and away from public view.

Within our facility:

To support our rural training courses, we host an impressive 1200 acres of privately owned and secluded outdoor countryside that enables us to conduct realistic practical exercises.

PRODUCTS: SUPPORTING COVERT OPERATIONS

We are proud of our own intellectual properties. Over the years, we have designed, developed and manufactured numerous products to support covert operations globally. Some enhancing third-party products, but mainly those that are stand-alone and unique to us, example products:

• Ruggedised technical surveillance equipment & accessories for rural environments
• Customised products for special reconnaissance applications
• Urban concealment systems for covert observers & snipers
• Covert access, exploitation & penetration kits
• Adaptive target reconnaissance kits

We take our time to rigorously test all products to ensure that we only support those that are fit-for-purpose and will meet your operational expectations.

DESIGN: TURNING IDEAS INTO SOLUTIONS

We employ ‘area-specific' engineers who turn ideas into solutions. We have the capability to design and manufacture custom applications such as electronics, software, hardware & protective enclosures using traditional machining techniques and the latest computer-aided design technology.

We work with the following materials and methods to ensure robustness & reliability:

Metals of all specification Plastics, acrylics & thermos Engineering resins Specialist textiles

Digital 3D printing – rapid & large format Laser cutting & folding CNC machining Textured coatings
