The Most Ferocious Special Forces Around the World

Särskilda Operationsgruppen

The Swedish Special Operations Task Group, SOG, was founded in 2011. Their purpose is to accomplish missions that cannot be done with conventional forces or even standard weapons systems. Such operations include, hostage situations, eliminating high-targets valuable to any enemy and gathering time-critical intelligence.

For peace-keeping operations, they may be responsible for training and advising foreign militaries. The train at a secret compound with a multi-story building that has bullet-absorbing lining in its walls. Amazing!

Naval Special Warfare Command

This special unit of the Royal Thai Navy came to be known as Navy Seals, which was influenced by the US unit but rather than an acronym, refers to the animal. Anyway, the Thai Seals was established back in 1956 with help from the US Navy SEALs.

Within the Thai Navy’s Seal unit, there’s a small element who is specially trained for maritime counter-terrorism missions. Many believe the Underwater Demolition Assault Unit gathers intelligence when there is heightened tensions on the Thailand border. Recently, the Royal Thai Seals were sent to Somalia to engage in anti-piracy operations.
