The best special forces force is obviously the SpetsNaz, not only is it one of the most familiar special forces in the ? military forces have a highly benefited from a demoralized enemy, but the SpetsNaz force is also the most trained with the most advanced weapons available. And one of the biggest factors in the power of the SpetsNaz are their numbers ? 15,000 men ? 8,000 active 7,000 reserve, the numbers alone do not make them any better but the numbers increase the response time dramatically.

I don't think anyone can go past the British SAS. They are the leaders in Special Ops and are often called on to train other groups around the world.

Best special force, in disorder: - British SAS - French Commandos Marines - Navy SEALS - Spetnaz - Israeli Special Forces - Australian SAS These are the more prestigious and experimented SF in the world I think.

given the last couple outings the spetz have had i'm surprised anyone puts them on the top ten list now. granted the school rescue was rather hasty and mistakes are entirely understandable there but the opera house was a set piece operation and the civvy casualties there were impressively large and mostly needless from what i've read.

The group that rescued Beslan school was a russian sort of SWAT, not Spetnaz. At the opera, the Spetz avoided that the terrorists blow out themselves, and that was the priority, but with a certain lack of finesse and control. Sure that GIGN would have done it better, but Spetnaz isn't a CTism force. Their speciality is war operations, and I think that in these case they are terrific.
