On surface level things look quite good. Modern rifles, all with optics, EyePros, Anti-UAV, good gears.
Someone might even comment badass.
But anyone with good understanding of weapons would see a serious problem here. Not just a lack of modern technologies or procurement issues, but problems with training and the attitude.
The only thing this poor grunt is seeing despite having a 600m rifle and a good german RDS is sadly just the top of his rifle's Picatinny rail.

This is why any serious operator would have used a risers; so that his line-of-sight and weapon's sight picture could've coincided in the first place.

This is not a lack of technology thing, this is simply a lack of awareness. Just like how a bunch of guys completely blocked their sight picture with a flashlight and no one questioned why.
