Arron Perry is a former master corporal in the Canadian Forces who in March 2002 broke the 34-year-old record for the longest recorded sniper kill in combat, completing a kill at a range of 2,310 metres (2,526 yd) during the War in Afghanistan. This shot exceeded the previous record of 2,286 m (2,500 yd), set by Carlos Hathcock in 1968 during the Vietnam War. Perry's record was surpassed a few days later, in March 2002, when another soldier in his unit, Corporal Rob Furlong, bested Perry's distance with a kill at a verified range of 2,430 m (2,657 yd). Perry was a member of Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry at the time of the record shot, but began his military career with a Halifax Militia unit, the Princess Louise Fusiliers.

Ce tir dépasse de 24 m le précédent record de Carlos Hathcock qui avait été établi en 1968 pendant la guerre du Viêt Nam. Le record de Perry a été battu en mars 2002 par un autre membre de son escouade, le caporal Rob Furlong, qui tua un taliban à une distance de 2 430 m. Perry était membre de Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, mais commença sa carrière militaire dans une unité militaire d'Halifax, la Princess Louise Fusiliers. (fr) |
