Pretty much every military in the world is highly trained but certain very secret
and special missions need more than the normal military that's where special forces come in they
only deal with missions which are of the utmost secrecy much of their protocols are secret and
the members are also all secret too in fact one of these special ops teams on this list doesn't
even officially exist but everyone knows it does so let's take a look at the most hardcore and
secretive soldiers in the world alpha group russia lots of people know about the spetsnaz which are
the russian special forces they're controlled by the gru which is russia's version of the cia
but within the spetsnats is the alpha group the most elite of the elite they were created back in
the times of the soviet union by the kgb in 1974. they dress in all black tactical gear
and their entire face except their eyes are covered with black masks they're not only trained
in things like arms but they're also trained in hand-to-hand combat they're famous for their judo
and krav maga martial arts they're also used all over the world because they do covert missions
domestically and internationally this group is also famous for the invasion of afghanistan alpha
groups stormed the presidential palace and within minutes they'd taken out everyone in the building
also alpha group was sent to peru once on a mission when four soviet diplomats were taken
sadly the diplomats were taken out but in revenge alpha group hunted down the people who did that
and took them out in return this was to send a message that russia and alpha group are not to be
messed with jtf2 canada canada is thought of as a very friendly and peaceful country but if you get
on the wrong side of them you may encounter jtf2 they are the most elite of canada's special forces
the name stands for joint task force 2. they rose to prominence in 2010. that's because they were
deployed all over vancouver during the winter olympics this was in case any groups tried to
harm the event the group is trained to handle biological chemical radiological and nuclear
threats also if something serious happens which is over the pay grade of the police
these guys are cooled out surprisingly this group has the most confirmed al-qaeda hits in the world
they've taken out more than 100 top-ranking members of the group all of their operations
are shrouded in secrecy and much of what they do is not even known to the canadian government
that's because secret compartmentalized military organizations operate jtf2 black stalks pakistan
the special service group or ssg is better known as the black stalks this is because they're
dressed in all black their training includes a 36 mile march in 12 hours and they also have to
run 5 miles in 50 minutes wearing full gear only 5 percent of the recruits make it into the ssg
and that's because they have to pass a hellish 9 months of training you need to be well trained
in their airborne school and also in hand-to-hand combat as well and on top of that you need to be
able to do everything a normal pakistani soldier can do but better the black stalks are trained
in many different environments this includes deserts jungles mountains and underwater that's
because they carry out operations in pakistan and internationally too when the group was first made
they received training from us special forces but recently they've done many counter insurgency and
intelligence gathering operations in october of 2009 the black stalks stormed an office
building they were able to rescue 39 people being held captive inside navy seal team 6 usa
navy seal team 6 are one of the us military's most hardcore groups but they're actually not
the most hardcore seal stands for sea air and land and since the group was created in 1962
they've been very secretive and feared around the world in 2011 seal team 6 took out bin laden
they did this using a specially modified helicopter from area 51. the black hawk
helicopters had radar spoofing technology this was a top secret piece of technology never before seen
so secretive that after the mission the helicopters were blown up the technology allowed
the seal team to slip past borders unnoticed it's said that seals often covertly enter enemy lines
and before the enemy even realizes they're there their mission has been finished and completed
there's over a year's worth of training which is not only physical but mental too and 99 of
recruits drop out in fact most can't even pass the basic fitness qualification test this involves
sit-ups push-ups and swimming you need to do this in a strict time limit and sometimes you're
even sprayed with a fire hose while doing it you then need to pass general training and then pass
seal qualification training and then finally you need to do specialized training after all you need
to be able to do the most difficult operations in the world at a moment's notice gign france
franz is one of the strongest militaries in the world and it's said that this elite team
is one of the most feared on the planet gign is used for many things in france they take
out people plotting mass harm but they're also used in the arrest of high-profile convicts
they can also make barricades to prevent getaways sometimes they're enlisted for vip protection of
politicians and royalty and they've even been used during prison riots before they're not
just used in france but in former colonies too they're also said to be the best in the world
at hostage negotiation and rescuing they have to do this in high density environments like buses
trains planes and ships press is not allowed to print their faces in newspapers and that's
why they're normally wearing tactical ski masks when in public their most famous operation took
place on an airplane to be specific air france flight 8969 on christmas eve of 1994 the aircraft
was hijacked the plane was going from algeria to france the hijackers were wanting to fly into the
eiffel tower but the aircraft reached marseille and gign were able to storm the plane amazingly
they took out all four hijackers their training is so extreme some people literally don't make
it and pass on in fact more people have passed on during training than their thousands of missions
say ray matkill israel this special forces group gathers intelligence from behind enemy lines
in 2003 a taxi driver was hijacked amazingly serene metcal was able to locate and rescue him
he was in a three-foot pit in an abandoned factory but their most famous operation has
to be operation thunderbolt this was when an airplane flying to uganda was hijacked
over 100 hostages were kept in an airport terminal building but saray matkal took out all of the
hijackers and freed all of the hostages sas uk the sas is the special air service of the united
kingdom they have many roles including covert reconnaissance direct action and hostage rescue
it's a super secret organization the members often don't tell anyone except close family
they're in it the training goes on for around half a year with a pass rate of less than 10 percent
they're said to be the best elite special force in europe they were formed during ww2 and they
operated from behind german and italian lines the training is very difficult you need to do
a 40 mile march and a two mile swim you also need to do many pull-ups and push-ups you need to learn
how to survive in the jungle using navigational skills but the final test is the worst part this
is a 36 hour interrogation session meant to break your will the sas is trained by mi5 and mi6 that's
basically the british versions of the fbi and cia gs g9 germany this group's first major mission was
a hijacked lutheran flight in somalia they freed all 86 hostages and were able to take out all of
the hijackers since then gsg9 has done over 2 000 missions but they've only discharged arms five
times only 300 of germany's most elite soldiers work in gs g9 delta force usa this special ops
group is so secretive the government won't even acknowledge its existence its operations and
technology are top secret the members are not called soldiers but instead operators
these guys wear civilian clothing and they work for groups such as the military fbi and the cia
the group has been criticized for carrying out black ops these are missions which are top secret
because they break the laws governing the military all funding for this group comes out of the black
budget this is the military budget that we can't see even as taxpayers this has led to some concern
delta force may have way too much power but now it's time to make your voice heard comment below
