TriviaEdit

• In a face-off with a TFT Heavy Sniper, the US Sniper will always shoot and kill the Heavy Sniper first, assuming that both units are of the same rank, and attack each other at the same time.
• The sniper can be commanded to crawl and maintain stealth, and scout for enemies using his long visual range.
• The sniper is best used against garrisoned infantry in buildings, as he can clear the occupants without fear of retaliation due to the rifle's long range.
• The sniper's weapon, the XM-25 rifle, is a modified M21 used by special forces.
