ZAZZU

Teame Zazzu Mountain Division led TZ participants in coordinated underground operations conducting a tunnel complex safety survey. TZ forward operators located and secured the entrance with K9 units during patrols in a mountainous region southwest of the Great Salt Lake.

Drone Division utilized a TZ.ROV.V.5 drone to scout and tunnels and gauge ground stability for armed TZMD operators. Teame members then moved through the tunnels clearing mine shafts and marking hazards. After locating a vertical shaft inside the tunnel complex, the ROV.V.5 was lowered via tether along a 90 degree angle of declination approximately 20 meters to assess rappel breach procedures and allow for FMV recording and transmission.


Watch the angle of the dangle!
TZMD operators successfully secured the tunnel complex during underground operations and egressed the area under cover of darkness after hoist recovery of the TZ.ROV.V.5 drone unit. TZMD operators then completed a drone assisted ground patrol of surrounding areas, rendezvousing with additional TZMD mobile assets. Go Teame!

Together with multiple state and private agencies, Teame Zazzu conducted a wilderness hard landing survival scenario involving air medical helicopters dispatched to a scene flight in Tooele County for a dirt bike accident. As the flight center worked on GPS coordinates the the pilot announces engine fire in flight. As the helicopters turn on final approach to LZ the pilot announces to crew to expect a hard landing with limited power. TZ forces deploy by air and ground serving as training guides, rescue operations support, and drone reconnaissance units to find the downed aircrews, fix their position, and document their survival until the search and rescue operations are finished.
