Mil CQC soft hands close range combat or counter skills terminology equates to the following:
Soft hands strikes are extreme close range unarmed offensive assault skills or a strike with a hand held weapon or implement.
They are striking skills with the hands or a hand held weapon that provides maximum effect with minimal physical out-put.
Soft hands skills are skills that target delicate life support targets and sensitive body parts including human sensory organs.
Soft hands strikes equate to skills being initiated from extremely close to point blank body contact range to the target with minimum travel and usually employed with deception, distraction or under covert or target concealment employment.
The strikes are often masked or under or outside the enemies’ peripheral vision.
The skills do not require high level loading, cocking or full limb extension and can reduce the likelihood of being compromised through overloading or telegraphing skill executions.
Targets usually are sensitive to the touch and somewhat delicate and thus only require low to medium contact to achieve objectives.
Lethal/destructive impact force to specific targets can be as little as 3kgs when delicate life support vitals are seized, secured and targeted by direct uninterrupted target contact or penetration. Incapacitation can be achieved with minimal force with specific target selection and specific skills to achieve this outcome.
Such skills include flat edge, sharp edge and specific hand configurations for specific targets contact and armed soft hands skill employments including spiking.
The skills can be threat neutralisation specific or to prevent seizure or effect a release from a grab or hold.
Soft close range skills also include pain compliance skills employment by pressure, leverage or penetration of delicate sensitive targets such as human sensory organs and small joints by causing sudden shock loading or short range dynamic or levered manipulation.
The skills include single strike targeting or same target multiple strikes to achieve maximum threat neutralisation outcomes.
Against formidable enemies multiple targeting is the mil CQC modus operandi to overwhelm and incapacitate.
Multiple targeting can make the hunted the hunter and overkill skills employment in kill or die close quarters actions on is a primary means of threat neutralisation.
Soft hands delicate/sensitive bodily vitals multiple targeting can in an instant turn the hunter into the hunted and the formidable into the vulnerable.
Such skills to such targets are not only devastating but also demoralising and can cause autonomic reactions and panic responses.
Soft hands skills include enemy seizing and securing prior to soft hands striking to maximise effect and reduce the likelihood of objective achievement failure.
The skills can be employed by body contact sense of touch target locating prior to point blank body contact skills initiation.
This provides capabilities to threat neutralise in darkness or when at body to body contact if human anatomy targets are not visible.
They can be masked by deception, distraction or concealed by using your torso or extremities to block the enemy’s visual of the target and the target destruction delivery.
Soft hands mil CQC skills can include hand-held weapons skills employment by impact contact or target penetration.
Armed soft hands skills employment increases the chances of threat neutralisation and objective achievement as a result of the hard materials the CQC weapons, implements or improvised inanimate objects are made of and the threat neutralisation specific weapons and tools they are.
Just like CQC spikes, short blade daggers and bullets that are small in size but deadly by design and destructive capabilities, so are soft hands soft mil CQC unarmed skills targeting of delicate human anatomy vitals and sensitive human sensory organs.
CQC contact impact bludgeon type weapons require higher physical force output and will be included in the upcoming hard hands close combat files inclusion.
Soft sensitive human anatomy targets require low to medium level contact making them effective means of battlefield close quarters action on threat neutralisation.
Soft sensitive targets contact can achieve autonomic reactions that make the enemy vulnerable for that moment in time, such as with turning away or turning their back.
Multiple soft hands contact of human anatomy vitals increases the chances of neutralising a formidable enemy combatant in violent close quarters actions on.
Soft hand deliberate human anatomy destruction skills are extremely close to point blank body contact range skills that require considerably less power than punching skills but achieve immediate effects.
Combatants mental toughness and commitment to objective achievement are enhanced by knowing such dirty and deadly life or death battle proven skills that can stop the most formidable enemy in their tracks instantaneously with low to medium physical output. The most important factors of threat neutralisation are mental toughness, intestinal fortitude and the best of battle proven hard targeting capabilities that are required to overcome adversity under assault and achieve threat neutralisation objectives, for without these most important attributes and capabilities all the skills in the world amount to little.
