Si parla di un'unità speciale della polizia di New York, tra cui c'è anche un "acquisitore di obiettivi". Come si definisce questo ruolo in inglese? Grazie.

Per un romanzo, il termine generico che ho suggerito ("NYPD Intelligence Unit") potrebbe andar bene - però bisognerebbe conoscere molto meglio la trama del racconto.

Phil is right, I was looking for the definition of a specific individual, not of the unit, even though Tom's information might prove very useful. Thank you both
