The goal is not to stop being afraid. Fear works. What ruins performance is the tension that comes with it — and tension is trainable in a way that fearlessness is not.

Few techniques, no forms, nothing that looks impressive. The sparseness of Krav Maga is not underdevelopment — it is a design constraint, and understanding it explains why the mental half matters so much.
