How do you complete Kastov Weapons Testing?

Due to all objectives requiring you to use the Kastov platform of weapons, you may want to know which guns fall under this. Here's a list of Kastov weapons:
- Kastov 762 (assault rifle)
- Kastov 545 (assault rifle)
- Kastov-74u (assault rifle)
- RPK (LMG)
- Vaznev-9k (SMG)
- Minibak (SMG)

For the first objective to get 15 headshots on AI enemies, we recommend spawning in and heading to a POI or Stronghold, as you can find tonnes of enemies in these locations. Take your time and try to go for headshots only, and you'll quickly complete this objective.
For the second objective to kill two Operators, it's a good idea to take Squad Hunt contracts, as this will direct you toward enemy players. Make sure to try and get the drop on any player you are aiming to kill, as it gives you a good chance to kill them before they can even respond.
For the final objective, you'll need to kill a commander. There are three commanders, the Chemist, Juggernaut, and Boss Chopper, which are marked on the map by a hazard symbol, a yellow question mark symbol, and a white skull icon respectively.
Heading toward any of these locations will cause the commander to appear. They are some of the toughest fights in DMZ, so make sure you prepare beforehand by getting as much armour, equipment, and health as you can.
Once you have completed all three tasks, you can exfiltrate and the mission will be marked as finished in the mission menu, awarding you with XP and a weapon blueprint.
