What they should do is use UAV to locate targets and designate them with laser, and use Krasnopol to pinpoint bomb them from 20 km away behind front lines.
Not sure if you are aware how little is 20km in mobile combat as it is now.
Go and ask someone from recon units what he thinks about going to tag a target.
Almost all battles fought in Syria are within a few km. It'll also prevent collateral damage to civilians. Just shoot all of their pickup trucks and artillery and the war will be over. They won't fight on foot with AK-47.
