What is the mission of the Special Warfare Combatant Craft-Crewman (SWCC)?

• A. To provide air support and target designation for carrier strike groups.
• B. To coordinate cyber warfare and network defense for naval forces.
• C. To operate NSW combatant craft in maritime, coastal, and riverine environments for insertion/extraction and patrol missions.
• D. To perform medical evacuation and casualty treatment across battlefields.

Answer: (C)

The mission being tested focuses on what SWCC crews do best: operate specialized combatant craft to insert, extract, and patrol in littoral (maritime, coastal, and riverine) environments. SWCC teams are trained to deliver SEALs and equipment into denied or dangerous areas and to conduct ongoing patrols to secure waterways and support special operations. This role centers on boat handling, navigation, and mission execution in near-shore and riverine zones, rather than providing air support, conducting cyber warfare, or performing medical evacuation. Therefore, the option describing operation of NSW combatant craft for insertion/extraction and patrol missions in maritime/coastal/riverine settings is the best fit.
