Top 10 Most Well Trained Special Military Forces On Earth by tunex23: 7:05pm On Jun 24, 2015
1British SAS
Nearly ALL the worlds Special Forces base their military model on the British SAS. In fact, the USA's Delta Force was set up after the founder spent time attached to the SAS. The Delta Forces even uses an SAS organisational structure using troops and squadrons. It's often remarked that the sand beret is also worn by US Rangers but this was a recent development and in any case the Rangers are NOT the same kind of unit. It can be said with confidence that the world's most professional special forces is that belonging to Britain.
The Special Air Service is the number one fighting force in the world it is trained to perform equally well in all the fields listed for the SEALs, but is also trained by MI-5 and MI-6 for in-depth counter-espionage, more so than the SEALs. Physical competency must be of equal stature to the SEALs, to the degree that both special forces work closely together when necessary (Iraq and Afghanistan) and have good camaraderie.
The original special forces, all others are based off them.

2. U.S Navy SEALs
The Navy SEaLs are the best the United States has to offer. They life is revolves around training. They are one of the best in physical capabilities after the Spetsnaz. They are a breed of super solider with the SAS, spetsnaz.
We have the history and experience to back it up. Plus the best training in every weather and geography and access to advanced technology man has to offer. Also we are constantly in hostile situations and are combat ready and are active to this day. can't say the same for some of these other spec-ops forces. Most other nations are limited to small defense budgets and lack of diverse terrain in training situations and conditioning. Also where are the experience of actual combat or credentials gained? Actions speak louder than words...
Yes actions speak louder than words... That's why SAS wins... Original... Still the best
The SEALS are the best in the world today. Arguing physical, mental, and emotional training is moot because all special ops units are elite in those categories. However, the SEALS have advantages over others with the unparalleled US military budget, which provides them with training in every geographical & climate scenario. The US has been active in wars around the globe since the Cold War, providing the SEALS with actual battlefield experience and proven results; whereas most other units have belong to nations who have not been at war for many years. At the end of the day, the SEALS blow past the competition because of their incredibly advanced technology and endless firepower. Upon completion of duty, former SEALS are the most hired consultants by other nations to oversee training for their respective units than any other special ops.

4.RUSSIAN SPETSNAZ
Spetsnaz training would be illegal in the US or other Western nations. They are constantly out fighting and are practically invincible to any kind of punishment. Not to mention the fact that they have some of the best weapons on earth, like the AK-74m.
Survive the most brutal training, some of the training that they have to go through is not even allowed in the US. And it is SPETSNAZ not spetnaz
Spetsnaz are the most trained soliders in the world. There almost impossible to crack in interrogation and are taught not ignore pain but to enjoy it.
They are the best commandos on earth. Their training is the best as well as the deadliest. They are soldiers for extreme situations.

5.PAKISTAN SPECIAL SERVICE GROUP (SSG)
A Russian president once said that if he had Pakistan's army and Russian weapons he could conquer all the world because they are very brave.
Actually, it was hitter that said "if I had German strategy, American weapons and Egyptian soldiers, I would have conquered the world"
It is not the weapon they hold, it's the men behind it that matters. No matter how the west view them, simply because word MUSLIM attached to their identity. I wonder if they know, that exact word is their strength. It is impossible to separate the two.
The SSG had only 100 me in the battle of the hill in afganistan in which they posed as mujahideen and attacked the Russian regiments of spetsnaz there. They won the battle although the enemy had the elevation o there posts and superior numbers to there side. In another case only 100 SSGs cleared 3 towns in swat district from 2000 taliban in a matter of 2 days!

6. THE U.S DELTA FORCE
I think most of these lists are heavily influenced by Hollywood on other media. When looking at a true all-around soldier, look no further than Delta Force. There may be other selections that are tougher but that doesn't make you the most effective warrior. You won't find any better shooters than these guys other than maybe US Secret Service.
The Best and one of the most secretive forces in the US. Modelled after the British 22 Special Air Service Regiment, or SAS. The founder/co-founder of SFOD-D was a former SAS operative who thought the US needed an elite force like the SAS.
Its Delta Force period. Delta Force pulls members from all branches of the U.S. military. Delta Force combat diver training is as hard as seal team 6 training. The vast majority of their missions you will never hear of.

7. U.S GREEN BERETs
The Green Berets are the most superior special forces in the us army. I think a spot between 5-1 would be best. They have one of the best and hardest training. They are trained to survive at any cost. They follow right behind the seals in my opinion. Also there history is very interesting. The Green Berets fight in airborne squads that takes balls. Most Rangers eventually become A Green Beret. "De Oppresso Liber" Translated to English is to liberate the oppressed is said for a reason.
You have to go through ranger school and airborne school to be a green beret so research a subject before you declare something that is inaccurate and puts other forces in the same branch of the same country's military down
Green Beret train longer than Rangers,
Delta Force operatives come from here and the 75th Rangers Regiment.

8. ISREAL SHAYETET 13
Shayetet 13 is among the best special forces around. Highly active in recent years, high quality people.
Shayetet 13 is more similar to the seals than delta force after they are "the Israeli navy seals", I think they deserve a spot in the top 5 for sure... Some of the units here were trained by men that came from the Israeli special forces like the Indians and the polish GROM for example
The #1 special force in Israel and in Asia, similar to The Delta Force, and supremely well trained
The number 1 special forces in Asia and have proven their strength in small numbers in past operations.

9. POLISH GROM
Polish GROM is in the same league as British SAS, US Navy Seals and Delta Force. It has been created and trained based on the same principles and standards as them. In my opinion, GROM should be within the world's top 4 special units. Just ask the British and the Americans who carried out quite a few special operations with GROM, they will tell you what GROM is worth.
GROM should be placed on 4-6th place. For sure ask British or U.S. soldiers.
Actually GROM worked with seals many times and even seals learned some training methods from them, they're either equal or better than seals, the only special forces that are better is in my opinion SAS
It is a powerful group which never turns away from their tasks and is always bet determined. I'd rank this the 4th most powerful. It is active not only in Poland but around Europe and you don't want to mess with the GROM.

10. SPECIAL BOATs SERVICE (SBS)
The SBS is the most highly trained and quietest of all British special forces. They complete the same selection and training as SAS but are not 'badged' until they have completed more extensive and rigorous SBS training.

Contrary to some opinion here, they are not 'part of the SAS'. They are part of the Royal Marines.

Americans seem to believe the Seals are the best having pulled off one good mission. The SBS have been doing it for years but without telling anyone.
Special Boat Service the equivalent to the Navy Seals but because they are the sister regiment to the SAS with the same sort of training apart from being marine based is BETTER than the Navy Seals Just like the SAS.
SBS are less known than SAS and they specialise in different things but are just as good as the SAS they should also be number one!
They are more elite than the SAS.

Re: Top 10 Most Well Trained Special Military Forces On Earth by Nobody: 10:58pm On Jun 24, 2015
With this i can now conclude that,
We must be existing on JOKE as a NATION..

And it is OBVIOUS to me that we have always had OPPORTUNISITIC LEADERS..

that means since the inception of this NATION, We are yet to produce an ENVIABLE leader.

A guy in TEXAS once told me that SOLDIERS in the US are rarely seen... in the streets.

You find ours DRINKING ORIJIN and PLAA, beating up BRT drivers.

The premier Special Operations Force in the United States is the revered and secretive Delta Force. Once upon a time, one would have tipped the British SAS(Delta was fashioned after the SAS, as America's premier counter terrorism unit) as number one, but based on sheer resources, America's global reach,which makes Delta way more active, and the experience and operational capabilities gained from being so active, even some former SAS members have declared that Delta clearly has the edge.
The US Navy SEALs are enjoying their hollywood moment(like Special Forces aka Green Berets did in the aftermath of the Vietnam war), but fiction is a little different from reality. First of all, only the former SEAL team six (DEVGRU) is comparable to Delta, and they are still a notch beneath Delta. The other SEAL teams are at best comparable to the Green Berets, which is a vast improvement in reputation....in the 70's they were the equivalent of the Army Rangers.
Most of Delta's missions are highly classified, and the Army doesn't officially recognize the existence of 'The Unit', as they are often called. So, very little of their activity makes it to the media. They are certainly more secretive than DEVGRU. . .it was Delta that captured Saddam Hussein, but in maintaining their secrecy and code of the silent professional, they let conventional Army forces in the area take the credit. Just last month, Delta Force struck deep in ISIS held territory in Syria and took out a key ISIS leader with little fanfare.
Some in the special operations community were appalled that DEVGRU was sent to eliminate Bin Laden instead of Delta. . .what was that about? It came down to the constant pissing contest between the Army and the Navy, and the commander of JSOC(joint spec ops command) at the time being a Navy Admiral(and former SEAL) wanted to score one for his guys. It was a 'vanilla mission' as their was little resistance encountered, but the naysayers were proven right as the SEALs involved soon started seeking fame, writing books and publicly arguing with each other about who actually shot Bin Laden. It was a show of shame.
The bottom line is; the highest value targets on America's hit list are primarily hunted down by one unit. . .Delta Force. It is certainly the highest priority unit in the US military, and I really don't see how they don't come out tops on this type of list.
