The SAT participates in coastal reconnaissance tasked with obtaining information on coastal areas before deploying forces and maintaining control over foreign ports and underwater areas.

Trainees who pass the rigorous physical and sea exams move on to the underwater phase, which lasts eight weeks.

In the land phase, it is called "hell week" after training on gaining a high level of land condition, swimming long distances in the water and getting on the boat, practicing VBSS, performing the task under pressure, getting rid of captivity, sea threats, long distance in the land, and finding targets.

With these trainings, SAT specialists have the skills to sneak, sabotage and raid the enemy's coastal and floating targets.
