Also it is very likely (possibly undoubtably) that such exercises would include traditionally dressed Muslim women who were unarmed and to be treated as a non-threat. I'm sure that would be the purpose of such an exercise.

armed services like the military and the police used a variation of targets to test the shooters and train them to recognize a potential enemy OR a potential non- enemy.
Would you cry foul if they had a target of a white woman in Western garb holding a gun?
What if it were this woman, dressed like a Baptist?

Just saw this silly thread! Maybe the reason for this new target is because the Taliban and other terrorist organizations are using more and more woman in their raids and as suicidal bombers. The reason for this is a hesitation that soldiers naturally have to shoot a women who is a threat. This hesitation can cost them and their fellow soldiers their lives in a threatening situation.
If Pentecostal or Baptist women start carrying suicide bombs and blow up and kill as many people as possible, it would justify using their likeness as targets too! Just saying'!
