Their training focuses on desert warfare, including survival techniques, reconnaissance, and combat tactics specific to sandy, hot climates. Desert Vipers are proficient in utilizing the harsh terrain to their advantage, setting ambushes and navigating sandstorms.

Their weaponry typically includes variations of standard Cobra infantry rifles modified for desert conditions, along with explosives and anti-armor capabilities. Their equipment also incorporates protective gear against sand, sun, and extreme temperatures.

Desert Vipers serve as a key component of Cobra's forces when operating in desert regions, offering expertise and resilience that regular infantry might lack. They are often deployed to guard Cobra bases or installations located in desert environments.
