GRU are not anti-terrorism thats FSB.

GRU are meant for all-out war and are the closest thing this world has to superhumans. One spetsnaz doctrine involves them being depolyed in enemy cities, take on the entire garrisson and plant suitcase nukes during the cold war.

However Gurkha's are fearless and well-trained, and also specialise in close range.

Close range: Spetsnaz. Alligator machetes and pistols are superior and spesnaz are specailly trained close combat with systema and lessons learnt from Stalingrad: the most bloddy battle in history; a lot of it fought hand to hand.

Mid range: Even.

Long rong: Spetsanz. They're snipers are the best. Although the sniper rifles themsleves are generally worse than NATO ones, they are reliable and shoot straight. They also have training based lessons learnt from the bloddiest conflict in human history: The great patriotic war.

Overall: Spetsnaz. They are the finest heavy infantry on this planet. Although the Gurkhas are very skilled they are fundementally light infantry and not meant for head-on conflicts with heavy infantry let alone spetsnaz. They are better at harassing.
