Unit Duvdevan Fighter

This unit specializes in counter-terrorism, mainly in Judea and Samaria. You operate both openly and undercover among the Arab population (mista'arvim), staying on constant operational alert. Duties include arrests, capturing wanted suspects and seizing weapons. You reach Duvdevan through selection out of the Paratroopers' gibush, or directly via pre-military selection modeled on the reconnaissance units, followed by an additional week-long gibush.

Profile 82 and above. BMI: 18–32. A commitment to career service, from one to seven years as a dedicated fighter; once accepted through the pre-military-selection route you cannot opt out.

Four months of general basic training (rifle level 05), two months of AMAT, eight months of dedicated-fighter training (including rifle level 07, infantry skills and counter-terrorism), then a squad-commanders' course. The whole path takes a year and four months.
