Which type of ambush is designed to target specific enemy units?

The type of ambush designed to target specific enemy units is a point ambush. This approach focuses on a specific location where enemy forces are expected to pass, allowing for a high probability of engagement with selected targets. By selecting a precise point, the ambush can be tailored to maximize effectiveness against particular enemy assets, such as an enemy vehicle or a squad, thus enhancing the chances of neutralizing those units.

In contrast, other ambush types serve different purposes. An area ambush encompasses a broader region rather than a specific target and is meant to engage multiple units as they move through a designated area. An anti-tank ambush specifically targets armored vehicles, but it does not imply a general approach of engaging just any specific enemy unit; rather, it is focused solely on anti-armor operations. A surprise ambush refers to the element of surprise in any ambush, but again does not emphasize the targeting of specific enemy units like the point ambush does.
