NCT PRO Outline

In this special edition of NCT PRO Challenge, teams will engage in CBRNe, EOD, and C-IED scenarios with a focus on special forces in a CBRN and IED environment.

Throughout mission 1, teams will determine any opposition and the potential of CBRN threats at a location suspected to be used as a clandestine lab. Since traces of CWAs are found by the observation team, a raid will be conducted by special forces (SOF) on the suspected drug lab ran by a local criminal group (mission 2). As part of this scenario, teams will further gather and collect evidence while conducting CBRN sampling for the following scenarios (mission 3).
