The Top 10 Special Operations Forces (2011)

[alenezijo]

in Jordan ??

[moellenkamp52]

Sas is second to the us.

[DovahBrit]

@moellenkamp52 lolno

[cra1234cor]

the s.a.s is the best,best trained, 2nd to none.

[MROWL17]

@trianglechoke101

What are you basing that on?

[hamburger1231000]

IS delta forces is real

[zezema535]

@hamburger1231000

?

[trianglechoke101]

seal team 6 should b right therewith delta.bunch of bs

[TheKatsushiro]

No 1 is Turkish Maroon Berets. This is proven by contests among several nations special forces. Go google it. Now you can dismiss.

[barracuda7018]

@TheKatsushiro .Dude, active Delta Force operators,Navy Seals or SAS troopers never participate at such contests. Their members identities are highly classified even to allied forces outside the UK/US .So ,these contests are no benchmark for anything. 5 out of highly trained 10 Maroon Beret would fail in an SAS or Delta Force selection , believe me its the hardest in the world.

[TheKatsushiro]

@barracuda7018 Your point is subjective. I think a competition in which several nations special forces participated give us a picture. In 2005 a competition was organized between the special forces of 24 teams from 7 countries including Austria, Belgium, France, Holland, Germany, Greece and Turkey. The competition was held at the training center for special operations of the armed forces in Pfullendorf, Germany. Turkish Maroon Berets won the first prize.

[TheKatsushiro]

@barracuda7018 I know there were no brits and yanks there. I also accept that these types of contests are not taken seriously but this is a more quantitative approach than subjective comments.

[TheKatsushiro]

@barracuda7018 I know there were no brits and yanks there, not sure if anyone from KSK participated. I also accept that these types of contests are not taken seriously but this is a more quantitative approach than subjective comments.

[BenjoBanjoo]

@TheKatsushiro BullShit. Thats all.

[SuperSuperSnowMan]

ok so top 3 should be sbs followed by the sas, then spetznaz.

[mypiono]

Where is unit 777 in Egypt????

[Koona85]

@mypiono in Egypt ??

[xxPEPTO12xx]

JTF2 all the way

[Menties1]

I dont know which is best and I dont care! All 10 are hard! But I think that top 3 might be SAS, Spetsnaz and Navy SEAL!

[bordoberelisalo]

1. Bordobereliler olmalıydı ! siktirin gidin amk cocukları

[Gusmanbima]

KOPASSUS IS THE BEST

[christopher1073]

Delta Force?

[zezema535]

@christopher1073

yes? what about them?

[KJT922010T]

This one is the best one

[johncha96]

my top six special fore in the world 6.green berrets 5.spetsnaz. 4.delter force 3.navy seals 2. SBS 1.SAS

[d3adlym00Se777]

SBS is the best

[pefha]

Delta forces arent the best spetsnaz and the sas are and israelis. delta has lots of failed operations. somali, middle-east and so on..

[zezema535]

@pefha

They all have a FEW fail operations, as a percentage it would be less than 1% failed.

In somalia, if you mean operation gothic serpent, Delta didn't fail. they completed their mission, if was the convoy that got stuck, and the crashed pilots had to be rescued - all that was after Delta had completed their mission.

Also Delta haven't failed any missions in the middle east in recent times.

[zionburner]

no one of the ftop 5 will ever beat spetznas. For the record: i'm not russian, just being objective

[USBorderGuard]

Great video!

[d3adlym00Se777]

What!? The rest are fine but it should be this for the top 3: #3 Delta Force #2 SAS #1 SBS

[DovahBrit]

SAS are the best, training Delta and Seals... so yeah.

[zezema535]

@DovahBrit

but they dont do that anymore, and haven't for decades

[Mustardootiger]

@zezema535 also jtf2 should be in the top 3, they were preferred by a US admiral over his own SEALs and eight other units he had to choose from, many of which are on this list at a higher ranking tha JTF2.

[DovahBrit]

@zezema535 Considering I know men in the Army who told me the other day that they still do.

[zezema535]

@DovahBrit

Wow - you know people in the army!? no way! Because they can't lie, be mistaken or retell rumours! I'm completely convinced now!

Seriously - how would 'people in the army' know what the SAS does or doesn't do, any more than anyone else? It's not as though as soon as you enter the army, you get briefed on everything Special Forces are doing.

[DovahBrit]

@zezema535 Woah woah, calm down Sally, it's not my fault that the SAS do in fact train the Seals and you can't handle the truth for some reason, and when I say 'Army' he was in the REME and they work with pretty much everyone from the Navy to the special forces - so he should know.

[zezema535]

@DovahBrit

And of course SAS operators just casually chat to engineers about who they train.

Have you considered that he just heard it as a rumour, then passed it onto you?

Unless an active SAS operator told me otherwise, I would believe the other sources available to me, that say the SAS do NOT train SEALs or Delta.

[PolishR8]

@zezema535 it has been confirmed

[zezema535]

@PolishR8 no it hasn't

[DovahBrit]

@zezema535 Yes it has.

[zezema535]

@DovahBrit

no it hasn't

[PolishR8]

@zezema535 yes it has in itvn it has been confirmed

[zezema535]

@PolishR8

send me a link to it then

[zezema535]

@DovahBrit

Have you though about how inconvenient and bad for image it would be for SEALs and Delta to send all their recruits to the UK for training, or for the SAS to send valuable troops to train them? I know these units cross-train, but the keyword is CROSS, the information goes both ways, the US units learn from the SAS, and the SAS learn from the US units.

When you see documentaries about SEAL training, what do you see the AMERICAN instructors do? stand around? no, they TRAIN the recruits

[DovahBrit]

@zezema535 Thou need to calm down.

[zezema535]

@DovahBrit

I'm perfectly calm, i don't know about you, but i use capitals for emphasis not to 'shout'.

if thats all you have to say i can only assume you accept my reasoning

[DovahBrit]

@zezema535 I certainly don't agree with you, but what's the point in arguing with an American?.. you people won't give it a rest even if you are wrong.

[zezema535]

@DovahBrit

Did you not read the 2nd slide in the video? I'm BRITISH

[DovahBrit]

@zezema535 Well, you're not exactly a very good Brit then, are you?... Shame on you.

[zezema535]

@DovahBrit

If a 'good brit' mindlessly accepts everything someone tells them, without any proof, then sure.

[PolishR8]

@zezema535 their is no link you would have to go to Poland to the war theatre and tactics museum and find it yourself

[zezema535]

@PolishR8

don't you think, that if it was a fact, it would be on the internet and not just in one solitary museum in Poland of all places.

[PolishR8]

@zezema535 my bad i should have said a series of missions

[zezema535]

@PolishR8

but still - 208 kills, no shots fired... thats rubbish

[MACEX1000]

1:53 batman=spetznaz

[MACEX1000]

i hope you know airborne and green berets are diffren cuz u just showed an airborne insignia and it said green berets

[KINGofTHROWINGKNIVES]

SAS trained Delta...

[TheBienpro]

you fail, JTF2 is the best

[PolishR8]

#1 GROM: 1 example why: GROM was given a task to infiltrate and clear 9 oil derricks rigged to blow by terrorists they did it with not a singal shot fired 208 confirmed kills undetected no casualties... they were ordered by the US because the US didnt want to risk the major derricks going boom so they sent the best nuff said...

[zezema535]

@PolishR8

bullshit

[PolishR8]

@zezema535 its true it happend during iragi freedom

[zezema535]

@PolishR8

I know they raided some oil rigs, but not 9 in one go, and not without firing any shots.

And Delta did some oil rigs at the same time as GROM.

Both the SAS and Delta have very high success rates.

[PolishR8]

@zezema535 i never said it was in one go

[zezema535]

@PolishR8

you said they were given 'a task...', which implies it was all in one go as it was one mission

[MrElsociopata]

@zezema535 What about the Iranian Quds Force. They were recently classified among the best elite troops. Correct me if that info is wrong. Thanks.

[PolishR8]

@zezema535 also sas is so overated look at their success rate deltas isnt that great either. just saying not trying to start an arguement

[42amphib]

take one squad from each one and send them as a JSU ( joint strike unit) into a opposing nations territory and watch what happens

[mohitman123]

jtf2 kicks all there asses.

[MarshmellowMIKE1]

GREAT XD not breat

[MarshmellowMIKE1]

@zootax Us SF train mostly in Fort Bragg NC, only out of the US to Israel and South America never to UK. Not that the SAS doesn't train significantly but there is no need to leave America. Israelis come to America cuz there is only one biome in Israel: desert but areas. But if any SF trained some where else, it would be secret. Breat vid zezema.

[zezema535]

@CrazyForeigner1 No, I'm British. RYDM?

[CrazyForeigner1]

YOU CUNT YOU ONLY CHOSE DELTA AS #1 BECAUSE YOUR FROM AMERICA.

#1 should have been RYDM from the UK their motto:Death comes with actions not words.

[850ovlov]

I would say the research done for this video came from an electronic video game and /or excessive use of mind blowing drugs.

[zezema535]

@850ovlov

Then you would be wrong - I played hardly any games, and take no knowledge from them, and I don't take drugs

[MassRS]

hi there i am a royal marine commando and have ever heard of the sbs? or even the AT anti terrorism unit? the most elite force on the planet please remove your video and do some research thanks

[zezema535]

@MassRS

I hope you have time to train, what with your RS playing.

Of course I've heard of the SBS.

[Naughtdred]

Who make these types of videos have played too much call of duty and battlefield,go back to play it childs!

[zezema535]

@Naughtdred

0% of my knowledge or opinion is based off call of duty or battlefield or any other games

[idricool]

SAS has the best special forces record and is the older special forces tier one unit in the world, it deserves first place.

[zezema535]

@idricool

no one knows who has the best record, 99% of missions are classified

[metalikaforever12313]

@zezema535 where is greece?

[GamersCamp]

@idricool How do you know that go back and play your CoD game fkr

[zotaaxHD]

@idricool All special forces are equal to be honoust.Almost all SF use each others training methode. US soldiers train in UK dutch soldiers train in Finland and so on...

[LetsPlayTrollBattle]

i'm American.SAS is first,SEALS second.Spetsnaz third.nuff said.israel,south korea,and japan are next.

[lorenzo3260]

Delta force I'd the best

[Theuspatriot1]

NO WAY, NAVY SEALS ARE AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST !!!!!!!!!

[UKDuckstep]

where are the legion?

[aerox07power]

you forgot the rangers !

[keyboardwarrior69]

SASR has surpassed the SAS! Should be number one with the U.K SAS and NZSAS number 2. Delta should be round 9.

[zezema535]

@keyboardwarrior69

No way is Delta 9th... you just lost all your credibility

[keyboardwarrior69]

@zezema535 Mate I am being antagonistic! Delta is sick. I would put seem on equal par with SAS and NZsas. I'm Having a joke. Delta is way better than Seals too! SOme-one who has access to special ops troops! And I aint a COD bullshitter. But SASR has become the supreme all-purpose spec-ops force. THis is widely accepted amongst spec-ops groups and this is a fact.

[Blackops1234561000]

@keyboardwarrior69 no sasr r no better then the ORINGINAL SAS AND DELTA SHOULD BE 2ND OR 3RD

[keyboardwarrior69]

@Blackops1234561000 Unfortunately the Uk sas isn't as funded as it used to be and corners are again unfortunately being cut. YES SASR are better now one of the best funded, hardest trained, (more people died in training than in combat), and most versatile, from jungle warefare, to desert, to artic and urban. They can be deep behind enemylines for upto 5 odd months without need of re-supply. Not many other spec-ops can do this. LRR is their speciality to but just as competent at others such as

[keyboardwarrior69]

@Blackops1234561000 counter-terrorism, search n rescue etc... I still rate the brit SAS highly though but they aint better than SASR. I have the honour of dealing with spec-ops troops all over the world so have access to intel that pretty much all these people on here don't. Obviously can't say too much for obvious reasons. GROM are very good too though but relatively new on the scene. The other force which are really good too is the FSK (Norweigen). Very versed in artic warefare. Cheers

[sammeybey]

S.A.S are the best trained in the world. All other special forces are based on them. Read wikipedia!

[keyboardwarrior69]

@sammeybey Nice source of info you have their? Wikipedia! LOL. Do you think wikipedia has access to classified intel!?! FOr example the AUstralian spec-ops have missions dating back to the 1940's that are still kept secret. THis info is for private eyes only. Same goes with JTF-2. and most of these spec-ops. Very rarely are mission details released to public and if so it's generally for a political agenda. Eg Osama binladen. ANY SPEC OPS could have assasinated him, it was a matter of findings hi

[keyboardwarrior69]

@sammeybey m that was the issue. IN fact the BRIT SAS had him cornered in 2005 but the US insisted that they be the ones to kill him hence resulting in extending his life by a further 6 years. Killing him is nothing to brag about, any of these top ten forces could have carried out that mission. Seals are not that good, trust me, this is widely accepted in the spec ops community. Peace out.

[zezema535]

@keyboardwarrior69

If you mean Tora Bora, then it wasn't just SAS, there was SBS, Delta, CIA SAD, Special Forces and 2000 NA fighters.

[spartanwithmoobs]

sas train delta force...wtf??

[zezema535]

@spartanwithmoobs

yes wtf. SAS don't train Delta. They did when Delta was being made, but not any more.

[Blackops1234561000]

@zezema535 no ex sas still train delta sas is the best there is

[zezema535]

@Blackops1234561000

a few ex-SAS might work in training some Delta members in some fields, but that's not the same as being trained by the SAS, for 1 they are ''EX''-SAS, so they're no longer with the SAS.

If an American soldier quit, and then joined the British army, and started training the British soldiers, that wouldn't be the same as the US army training the British Army would it?

And I'm sorry but I can't take you seriously with you Call of Duty username.

[Blackops1234561000]

@zezema535 cod username wtf and still ex sas or sas still they were still in the sas delta are a bunch of american pricks like you

[zezema535]

@Blackops1234561000

yes CoD username, you like CoD and you made the username after the release of CoD: black ops. it's safe to assume you named it after the game.

I'm British.

[aapje2991]

Seals on three???

[CadetMorenoR]

I think the unnoficial motto for the Israelis is pretty funny. But much respect.

[MrTOMWP]

the sas have the best training and motervashon also shouldn't the SBS or the RMC be on their somwair

[damaoker]

hehe and where are our guys ? watch this-------> watch?v=UNBqj3hllVg

[MrAmorimFAC]

It is not fair. Portugal has one of the best forces in the world and is not included. The name is Ranger.

[massimovolpe]

based on what knowledge you have made​this list?

know the GOI? really know the types of weapons that use special forces?

a special force of it is special when they know little.

Delta Force, Navy Seals, to get the patent as an instructor in their departments, should take the patent GOI.

If you do not know who they are in for a spin network learns the story.

[TehOrero]

3:09

Go take a shit on my dick...

[anas81292]

Really are those the 10 best special forces in the world. I agree with you but where do you put the mujahideen, they not even in the top 10. They should be number 1.

[zezema535]

@anas81292

ok i'll bite - why should they be first?

[CamoShield]

@zezema535 SAS shouldve been number one, nay, they ARE number one

[braddy000]

@CamoShield Yep SAS should of been number one they are better trained,more advanced weaponry and equipment.

[zezema535]

@braddy000

definitely NOT more advanced weaponry and equipment than Delta and NSWDG

[braddy000]

@zezema535 Er yes the SAS do have more advanced equipment.

[zezema535]

@braddy000

no they don't

[OnlineBlackshot]

@zezema535 than y must delta force be first?????

[zezema535]

@OnlineBlackshot

it's clear the mujahadeen shouldn't be first, I put the Delta as first because i believe they are the best. They have the best weapons and equipment, arguably the best training and an outstanding record

[poppadoms592]

@zezema535 delta dont have the best training, sas do. (they also have the best discipline)

[zezema535]

@poppadoms592

and you know this how? their training is mostly secret, and discipline is objective.

[poppadoms592]

@zezema535 i dont know but there's this thing called wikepedia...

[zezema535]

@poppadoms592

and does it say on wikipedia - 'the SAS have the best training in the world and also the best discipline'? no.

[poppadoms592]

@zezema535 why are you arguing? why are you replying to everything i say? cant you just leave it for fuck sake?

[zezema535]

@poppadoms592

everything you say? that was 2 comments. and i'm trying to show you that you're wrong

[poppadoms592]

@zezema535 most of the stuff you put in this video is wrong but i dont list them do i? how do you know these are the the top 10 special forces and in this order? actually i cant be bothered talking to you anymore. where are you from?

[zezema535]

@poppadoms592

so you don't want to talk, but you ask me a question?

I'm from Britain.

I know because i research, please go ahead and list what is wrong with this video.

[poppadoms592]

@zezema535 delta shouldnt be that high up. thats the only problem

[zezema535]

@poppadoms592

so one problem, not most of the video. ask anyone - Delta SHOULD be that high up

[braddy000]

@zezema535 You mixed those facts witht he S.A.S mate sorry...S.A.S out of 2,000 people that try to join only around 2 make it through also 9 SAS troops took on 200 rebels and won they are classes as the most elite force in the world from many sources.

[zezema535]

@braddy000

no, out of 200 that try selection, about 15 make it through.

if 2 out of 2000 made it in, then that would mean that more than 300,000 people would have tried out to make the 250+ members they have today, that would mean 75% of ALL British service members - Army, Navy, Air Force, Royal Marines would have tried out, which is clearly impossible and wrong

[Outlawpimp101]

@zezema535 If anything ST6 should be first. After all they killed Osama. I think JTF2 should of been maybe higher, and you forgot CSOR !!! haha good video though

[rashaunjackson1987]

You forgot US MARINES

[MrThrashTV]

i think your forgeting the australian special forces, they are one of the most highly trained in the world

[MrRonald1231]

I agree, NAVY SEALS no.1

[li12549548]

its true

[li12549548]

seal team 6 is better seals are proven to complete their missions at all times including all navy seals

[redarmy126]

i think us army rangers should of made the list too

[MrJoec2010]

Silly American, thinking there precious Delta are number one :) you do know SAS teach Delta Force tactics and about 90% of how much Delta is run is based on the Special Air Service...

[zezema535]

@MrJoec2010

I'm British - the SAS TAUGHT Delta tactics etc initially, now it's all Delta.

[MrJoec2010]

@zezema535 Really? thought SAS still had quite a lot to do with there training and stuff, fair enough.

[jackmiossi]

@MrJoec2010 Just because the SAS taught them does not mean Delta cannot be better. Many "apprentices" exceed their "masters."

[zezema535]

@jackmiossi

and if anything, being taught by the SAS can only be a good thing, they might have been worse than the SAS at first, but after being trained by them they gained all the knowledge that the SAS accumulated over the years - then plus what the americans already knew and experienced.

If the SAS had 10 'points' of knowledge and experience, and Delta at first had 8 - then after the training Delta added 9/10 points of knowledge and experience from the SAS onto their existing 8, then 8+9=17

[MrJoec2010]

@jackmiossi haha ;) you've got me there.

[REAPER193]

CANADA

[rkkrqqqqrssss]

Honestly I feel like you can NEVER know what they actually do. They are secretive for a reason! and also why to become one takes so damn long and is probably really intense physically and mentally.

[TheCrapoo]

delta force was created to do exactly the same thing as the SAS, a copy: the SAS is the best, you can even look up the stats if u like.

[zezema535]

@TheCrapoo

stats such as?

[FireXD80]

@zezema535 There are special kind missilies,that are harder to intercept.

[zezema535]

@FireXD80

Yes, but don't forget that the silos are heavily armoured, and it would take a very big bomb or missile to destroy them - those large ones can be easily intercepted. Also a large portion of their nuclear arsenal are held on subs around the world - how are you going to destroy all those?

[FireXD80]

@zezema535 Well you don't have to destroy the missiles at the silos,you can easily intercept them in air.

[zezema535]

@FireXD80

some of them yes, but a lot would get through the defences and detonate.

[FireXD80]

@zezema535 Not true,you see the intercepting missiles woud be much,much,much more.And the missiles woud not be attacked in that short range.

[zezema535]

@FireXD80

some of the missiles wouldnt be detected in time, and to intercept them means there would have to be a launch system close to the incoming missile - in large countries you can't defend everywhere.

[rkkrqqqqrssss]

@TheCrapoo I had no idea you can look up stats on special forces.....I can now choose my favorite player right?

[bakerlook]

I just told you the facts. No need to get angry or so, if you just deny it, then its OK for me. But IF you someday finds out that its true, then just think back to this moment.

[zezema535]

@bakerlook

not facts - your twisted opinion. how can infantry be better than tier 1 special forces?

[bakerlook]

@zezema535 They dont only got one section in TMBN, they got a few, and then got a widely specre of awailable objects. Maybe you have just heard about the fast special INFANTRY force. (faster, more delicate and got bether tacts than regular infantry)

[zezema535]

@bakerlook

true, they're specialised infantry - but still infantry - nowhere near as good as delta

[bakerlook]

@zezema535 some of that is true, since they got a "secret" force to, they are NOT infantry, they are special force, Norways best men, and they even train SAS soldiers. Belive it or not.

But ofc, we got a regular special force to. In line of SAS, as you know. That SF is also some of the best forces.

[bakerlook]

Ever heard of the Norwegian "telemarks bataljonen" ? they assrapes delta force, do some research. if you are lucky and find something relevant, read it and reconsidder this movie. they do missions above Delta force's level, sorry..

[zezema535]

@bakerlook

riiiight...mechanised infantry are better than Tier 1 special forces, and do higher level missions...sure.....

[filipquintus]

Nice list, I fulle agree with you, Delta force is the best special force in the world

[1bings]

Just a last share since I rarely get a chance these days. But list 1 to whatever is inconclusive especially with too many unknown factors. The other is any list that does not feature China, Turkey, Brasil and India is going to be flawed. Especially China. To think how well they do in Olympic table tennis with their quick reflexes etc and assume that they will not put a decent SF team together is a massive mistake. I just hope the SFs who have our "way of life" interests at Heart are Improving.

[zezema535]

@1bings

they do so well in table tennis because children are trained from very young ages to be good at table tennis, thats all they do 8 hours a day, very little other teaching in other school subjects, only what they need to speak and write.
