Most Elite Special Forces In The World - Part 1

Among the

forces

of the

world

's nations are some of the

most

formidable units ever seen, designed to go above and beyond the call of duty. Everything from their training to their missions goes beyond standard military

forces

to extremes you'll find hard to believe. 13 Israel has several

special

forces units, but the Shaytaat 13 is probably the

most

respected and at the same time among the most secretive. The unit established in 1949 is also known as the Silent People and you can tell from their uniforms that they are probably very good at silencing other people as they have fought in almost all of Israel's major wars and undertaken dangerous counterinsurgency missions.

You've probably never heard much about them, because their details are so strictly contained in the Israeli government that very few come to light. What is known about this mysterious unit of the Israeli army commandos is that it is made up of three companies, the assault company, is tasked with missions involving assassinations, raids and counterterrorism, the submarine company whose name betrays its predominantly maritime rules. and submerged in maritime strikes in reconnaissance and over water company that operates the 13 fleet of ships and submarines for transport and surface attacks many special forces units around the

world

require that recruits have completed a minimum amount of military service and recruits of the 13 have To meet a

icularly high standard, acceptance of the application requires a minimum of four and a half years of service and that is not including the 20 months of high-intensity training they must undergo first.

This begins with basic and additional training, both designed to put troops through the rhythms of maritime warfare then go through advanced training and combat diving using unique holster 13 wetsuits and state-of-the-art breathing apparatus. This training takes the meaning of stealth to a whole new level, as they are barely allowed. to let the oxygen bubbles escape and become so intense that commandos have died during exercises to train and capture the durable enemy. Aspiring shaytans will be falsely kidnapped by their superiors and held in prison conditions for two weeks confined alone. They will be subjected to horrendous threats of interrogation and violence and will be forced to perform humiliating activities after being stripped naked.

In most of the world, this is called torture, but in Israel it is called training. It's pretty clear that this preparation is incredibly brutal and demanding on both body and mind, so it's not surprising. that the attrition rate is extremely high, as could be expected from an organization like this, the exact figure is classified, the only thing we know is that very few manage to overcome it, that there are years in which the unit can barely operate due to low numbers, but that has not happened. It never stopped them from undertaking dangerous missions like the full disclosure operation.

This operation took place in 2014, when the Iranian sea-class ship was identified as carrying deadly weapons of long-range destruction across the Red Sea. The 13 shayated were called in and prepared for every eventuality before successfully seizing the ship undetected, but even more incredibly as

of the Lebanon War in 2006, 13 commandos were flown hundreds of miles and dropped behind enemy lines to attack Hezbollah's stronghold city. It was a suicide mission, as the Hezbollah commanders were in charge of a rocket launch network and could have annihilated them all in seconds, however, the 13 holsters managed to infiltrate and eliminate 30 Hezbollah commanders without losing a single soldier. , keeping those rockets a secret, while undeniably impressive, these are just two. of countless victories these veterans have been a part of, and honestly, it's unlikely the world will ever hear about most of the missions this secretive unit carries out.

Russia's alpha group takes things very seriously when it comes to national security and this is proven by existence. from the terrifying alpha group with the motto where alpha appears, the commitment stops, you can get an idea of ​​how ruthless this special forces unit really is formed under the command of the Russian secret police, the kgb, in 1974 after the attacks terrorists during the Munich Olympic Games. gradually developed into a task force dedicated to combating terrorism, today they are tasked with resolving complex hostage situations in a variety of scenarios including storming hijacked buildings, trains and planes to ensure the unit includes only to the brightest recruits.

All potential candidates must have a college degree. and must spend a minimum of 3 years in training, this includes a grueling phase of infantry training, parachuting, diving, sniper operations and practical shooting. They also learn a variety of foreign languages ​​and martial arts to actively prepare them for any terrorist situation with intense psychological training. to solidify their loyalty to the kremlin they talk about getting into the head this training makes them a cornerstone of russia's military power to such an extent that a military coup against president mikhail gorbachev in 1991 failed because the alpha group refused to participate despite from threats of execution by others The leaders of the kgb at that time the alpha group remained dedicated to their loyalty and refused to act against the party leadership.

Thanks to this, no attack on the parliamentary building could be carried out and the coup eventually crumbled like a wet cake, while the alpha group is the key vertebra in the backbone of the Russian army, its reputation as a ruthless unit has some terrifying foundations back in 1979 they let 700 soviet troops storm kabul's taj bag palace their orders were to simply kill everyone in the building with 2200 people on the premises including a highly trained army national soldiers and palace guards the soviets were ominously outnumbered In numbers many forces would have faltered but the alpha group had been trained from day one to accept all orders without question, they broke in and room by room annihilated approximately 350 people in just 43 minutes the entire palace had been destroyed conquered in less than a hour, forcing the remaining 1,852 troops and guards to surrender, the event solidified alpha as one of the most ruthless and efficient

elite

forces on the planet, as if Mother Russia wasn't already terrifying enough for the US Navy Seals. when Hollywood wants to profit.

In the latest military action trend, you will usually see people around these guys on your screen. These highly trained individuals, the US Navy Seals, are famous for being one of the US military's premier special forces units and no wonder their acronym comes from the fact that they specialize in sea, air and land operations and Their skills are as adaptable as they come, they can perform jobs in a wide range of environments, from deserts and urban areas to jungles and even arctic conditions, but a Navy Seal's ability to adapt terrain runs much deeper and is trained with some crazy exercises, for example, seals preparing to enter a cold weather environment will be taken to Kodiak, Alaska, here they will acclimatize by being thrown into a river of ice for eight minutes, just a few more minutes.

Enough to kill most humans, these types of exercises push them to the brink of hypothermia, but are vital to their survival and performance in real-world scenarios, but bad weather is only half of it and many of their missions require For units to be inserted into dangerous territory, conventional transportation is generally not an option; Instead, the seals are routinely parachuted into submarines or high-speed boats or by helicopter, they are even trained to swim in full combat gear to hit targets. When they hit those targets, that's where the action really begins. The seals claim that Their missions primarily include direct action warfare, special reconnaissance, counterterrorism, and foreign internal defense with risks as high as these, meaning their recruiting process is not easy to say the least, so what does it take to become The seals' initial preparation includes 12 months of basic training, but there's nothing basic about it.

Apart from countless sit-ups and push-ups, candidates will be tied up and thrown into pools where they will have to complete recovery tasks using only their teeth. They will also be taught how to tie and untie five different nuts underwater without stopping to take a breath in the middle and they will master the combat stroke that will allow them to swim dozens of miles without subjecting themselves to exhaustion and that is just the beginning because if they manage to reach At week four they enter the week of hell, it is five days and five nights of almost constant training with only four hours of sleep in total while the candidates' brains soften from drowsiness, they will train hard in a boat running crawling through mud plains lifting 300 pound logs and they will even go through Surf Torture, if they do well the instructors may reward them by allowing them to stay by the fire or sleep for a few minutes.

All of this is designed to push physical and mental strength to their absolute limits, ensuring that they can operate efficiently without being aware of their own problems. physical comfort, yet the process is so brutal that there have been years in which more seals have died in training than in combat and, for those that survive, up to 80 percent of candidates who begin basic training drop out, even Olympic athletes have not been able to achieve it. to the bitter end, but if they do, another 18 months of pre-deployment and intensive specialized training follow, although their real-world missions are rarely made public. one of the Navy Seal's most prolific victories.

Operation Neptune Spear resulted in the elimination of Osama Bin. Loaded under the cover of darkness, the Seals were airdropped into enemy territory and managed to eliminate one of the most prominent targets in American history in just 30 minutes. Some people can't even shower in that amount of time, but just like a shower, the mission was a resounding success, but so are most seal missions, which usually end before most people Know that they have started the SAS, the British Special Air Service is the oldest special forces unit in military history during the world war. ii it was decided that an

elite

team of highly trained and specialized soldiers was needed to infiltrate enemy lines, this would allow them to conduct highly secret and unrecorded operations while inflicting substantial damage, the resounding successes solidified the speed of the unit from which dare to win and Today, the sas trains primarily in special operations warfare, surveillance and counterterrorism, but what really sets them apart from other units is their infamous and brutal selection training, while most applicants have experience in military training and many do not pass the selection test that involves five months of pure hell designed to break down each candidate, both physically and mentally.

The physical tests involve timed forced marches through the British countryside which may seem like a walk in the park, but not when you are tackling six trick marathons in just five days and To prove they can really go the distance, candidates must wear backpacks filled with bricks weighing up to 55 pounds across treacherous mountainous terrain, all while being timed without a minute to spare or even slowing down the watabee soldiers who have no choice but to press on with each new day of one pain each time. more agonizing if they want to go from giant sores that form from the weight of the bag to suffering severe hallucinations due to heat fluctuations and exhaustion.

It becomes so exhausting that some candidates even die during this selection phase, if they survive they go on to train through the jungle. terrain and receive instruction in weapons tactics and hand-to-hand combat. At the end of the process, only one in ten candidates make the cut and are then ready for the definitive physical and psychological test with which the trainees are released into the world. With only a compass, a sketched map and the clothes they are wearing before being pursued by the full force of the sas, they are forced to evade and hide any way they can, surviving using the terrain, their training and their wits when they are finally .

They are caught and then subjected to the most demanding level of interrogation resistance training. The hooded and handcuffed trainees will be thrown into the back of a truck and transported to a detention center. When they arrive, they will immediately hang them andThey will be sprayed with freezing cold. Water treatment personnel will leave them in stressful positions with white noise in the background to ensure that rest is the last thing on their minds. Deprived of food, water and sleep for up to seven days, this can cause strong men to mentally break down into sobs. but they cry like little girls as they could, they only fail if they take off their hood or answer their interrogator with something other than his number, as you can probably see, the sas takes no chances when he sends his troops into the line of duty they he is assuming.

You have troops left at the end of the training The efficiency and courage that this training teaches can be seen in the results of the SAS Operation Boris in 2000 saw 11 men from the Royal Irish Regiment captured and held hostage by Sierra rebels Leona after negotiations failed with the SAS intervened with the help of paratroopers and cleared the buildings before extracting the hostages, while one member of the SAS was lost, at least 25 of the rebels were subdued and all the hostages were rescued. with life. In another operation in Afghanistan in 2018, a lone sas soldier used his initiative. to get into tunnels where several terrorists had escaped while the local militia refused to pursue them, this soldier eliminated the six escaping terrorists in the dark with nothing more than a gun and a hammer after his gun jammed, he can It may not have been standard issue, but it sure did the job with such demonstrated skill that it's no wonder these soldiers are considered an elite special force and, what's more, sasThe soldiers also train alongside MI5 and MI6 agents in the art of espionage, so all in all, an SAS officer is like having a Navy Seal and James Bond all together in the corpses of one man.

Sometimes it's not the quantity but the quality that really counts, don't believe me. Ask the Danish Romance Corpses, an elite unit that has seen fewer than 350 recruits come to its English ranks. Their name means frogman core, and as implied, they are a deadly maritime force that makes their enemies croak part of the Royal Danish Navy. The Denmark-based unit was established in 1957 by selecting the best elements of elite Norwegian, British and American military practices, while its primary function is reconnaissance. This unit goes where the navy ships can. They are capable of targeting beaches, coastlines, fjords, and harbors with ease, but are also trained in special reconnaissance, shipboard sabotage, and direct action when necessary.

Enduring so much time in the cold, dark waters of the northern hemisphere is not natural and the training that a frogman has to undergo puts many other forces to shame, while military experience is not mandatory the selection process eliminates more than half of all applicants in the first week, separating Call of Duty fans from the real deal. You'll only move forward if you can run 1.7 miles in a 12-minute walk with 22 pounds of gear. For more than 40 miles, I swam nearly a thousand feet in eight minutes and swam nearly a hundred feet underwater. In the water section, candidates will often try to put on full diving equipment underwater, but inexperienced divers sometimes faint and need to be revived, and all those challenges are simply the basis for entering with around 200 recruits.

By selection process, less than 10 percent will advance to the next phase. This stage includes navigation marches, cold water hypothermia resistance training, a 1000 push-up test, and 16 mile marches usually assigned to one of the There are nights a week when candidates have free time and all of this is done. completed in just one six-week period for the remainder of the eight months. Basic and technical training will be the main concern and will revolve around elements such as high oxygen tactical diving training, high patrol training and bomb. Elimination graduation is followed by another year of training before any recruit can become an operator.

From here, it's a life of almost total secrecy and the Danish government rarely publishes details of the frogmen's missions, but depending on their missions, such as reconnaissance teams, the operators may wear face. veils to obscure the shape of the head and neck, which for anyone who has seen these guys or these guys in the movies certainly gives them a creepy feel and also makes them much harder to detect when tracking their targets, which which turns them into a lethal force. I'll never see it coming now I always thought the purpose of an elite forces unit was to remain unknown in uniforms like these.

It is impossible not to pay attention. Is there anyone written into any law that requires all elite forces to appear prepared? For an impossible mission with the apocalypse theme of them all so far, which force do you think has the sharpest appearance? Let me know in the comments and while you're at it, test your sniping skills and see if you can hit the like and subscribe buttons. For sharper shooting content Delta Force, you may know them as US Delta Force or simply the unit, but their official title is 1st Delta Special Operations Task Force, many of their nicknames are informal, which is not It is surprising since very few people officially talk about it in public. what they actually do, as their movements are highly classified along with counter-terrorist operations, delta force, they participate in hostage scenarios, reconnaissance and less covert direct action operations, they were formed in 1977, when high-profile terrorist activity began to increase , this Tier 1 special operations unit was originally supposed to remain completely unknown to the public, of course not, but the secret remains, many of their missions are strictly classified and even when they die in battle, the army is often refuses to reveal a soldier's true unit, that's how it's taken.

The selection process for Delta Force is reportedly the most difficult in the world. Most candidates are already incredibly capable soldiers, often coming from special forces like the 82nd Airborne Division and the Navy Seals, and many have served their country through active combat, but even extensive experience. While grueling physical training is not enough to guarantee passing this tough selection process, it involves a month-long course designed to highlight the best of the best with incredibly demanding tests ranging from advanced vehicle navigation and lock picking to demolitions. . and expert use of firearms, everything is geared towards creating machines of ultimate destruction, most of the details about the details of the process remain classified, but it is believed that less than 10 of the applicants manage to pass the delta iv selection of the few selected to train as part of the unit.

A further 50 per cent are then expected to drop out, so out of a potential pool of 120 candidates only around six will make it and, on a good day, this absolutely brutal regiment means the total number of Deltas is thought to be around 1,000. operators, but I do say that the best things come in small packages even though many of the details of Delta Force operations are kept top secret. His involvement in the 1989 invasion of Panama inevitably made headlines that in December Delta Force agents managed to rescue an American hostage from a jail in the middle of Panama City despite his helicopter being shot down and his agents Seriously wounded, they managed to extract the hostage and the team without any deaths on their side and days later a Delta unit used extensive psychological warfare to convince the tyrannical president of Panama Emanuel Noriega to throw up the white flag.

I can only congratulate him for lasting so long. I would have taken one look at them and given up immediately. I'm not a coward, I just prefer my body not to have bullet holes now it's practically impossible to fit them all. Elite forces in the world in one video and do them justice, so I'm just scratching the surface here. If you want a part 2, let me know in the comments because there are many more. I really want to tell you which one of these. Special forces you would like to be a part of if you were able to get through the training process, let me know in the comments below and thanks for watching.
