Poland’s GROM

Poland’s counter-terrorism unit is modeled after reputable units such as the US Navy SEALs and British SAS. They have played a pivotal part in the war in Iraq, Afghanistan and most most recently against ISIL. GROM takes on missions which include counter-terrorism, rescuing hostages from fixed structures and vehicles, perimeter protection, and supporting operations of other military and non-military units.

South Africa’s Special Task Force

This specialized police team is trained like a military elite unit. Their brazen “shoot first, ask questions later” method of operation has brought them to our list. Responsible for taking on any situation deemed too dangerous for regular cops, these bad-boys fear nothing. Specializations of theirs include thwarting armed robberies, hostage situations, be it in the air, water or on land and VIP protection.
