If Full Metal's skills as a soldier seemed authentic during his time on "SEAL Team," that is because they were earned on a real-life battlefield. The character of Scott "Full Metal" Carter was actually portrayed by Scott Foxx, a former Navy SEAL (per TVLine). Foxx served two tours of duty in Iraq, the first occurring in 2005 and the second occurring in 2007 (as seen through photos on his personal Instagram). From there, he has gone on to take a technical consulting role for Hollywood depictions of Special Forces units, which is how he found himself on the cast of "SEAL Team."
As Foxx's background is somewhat atypical compared to other actors who play Navy SEALs in Hollywood, his IMDb list of on-screen credits is comparatively limited. Outside of his work on "SEAL Team," the only other on-screen work he has done is a role as Travis Carter alongside Josh Brolin and Miles Teller in Joseph Kosinski's "Only the Brave." The 2017 film chronicles the lives and untimely deaths of a handful of real-life firefighters who perished during a wildfire in 2013. Beyond that, while Foxx will no longer appear on-camera as Full Metal on the series, he will retain his consulting role.
He may no longer be present in front of the camera, but hopefully his presence behind the scenes will help "SEAL Team" continue its trademark military authenticity.
