Kapap (), short for Krav Panim el Panim, translated as "face to face combat", is the original Israeli combat system of defensive tactics, hand to hand combat and self defense employed by the Jewish Underground Movements and the Israel Defense Forces.
The simplicity of the kapap concepts and fast adaptation made the kapap training system a successful tool of training thousands of fighters in the Palmach and Hagana, the Underground movements that operated as the Militia forces for the policial leadership in the Jewish settlement under the British Mandate.

Kapap liker jo å kalle seg for mer avansert en KM (dvs at de skal liksom ha teknikker som starter der KM slutter og passe bedre for spesialstyrker etc).
Men det de markedsfører seg med er at Kapap er utviklet for spesialstyrker i Israel, og at dermed tar for seg mer avanserte trussler en det KM gjør.
