Spetsnaz
History= "Surrender should not option for Spetsnaz soldier."

- Sonny Puzikas, former Spetsnaz operative and guest on Deadliest Warrior. Spetsnaz GRU is what is commonly considered to be Russia's most elite special forces unit. During times of war, members of Spetsnaz were subject to going behind enemy lines to commit acts of sabotage, assassination, and stealing of enemy info. The group was formed during World War II to act as reconnaissance and diversionary forces. Spetsnaz recruits undergo rigorous training, including swimming in pools of blood. Recruits are trained to build physical and mental endurance and are reputed to have the toughest trainign program in the world. The Spetsnaz also have their own cache of specialized equipment, like the ballistic knife and Spetsnaz shovel. They have been compared many times to units such as Shayetet 13, Delta Force, Special Air Service, and many others. In 2009-2010 the group was disband and were cut off into independent briagdes and reconnaissance battalions attached to military districts. Some members have gone to the General Staff of the Russian armed forces of the Russian Federation; reporting directly to the general staff. Melee= Ballistic Knife

Delta Force
History= "Surprise, Speed, Success"

- Delta Force motto

Delta Force, or 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta, is a member of the Special Operations Force and is America's primary anti-terrorism force. Main tasks include peacekeeping, raids, counter-terrorism, and hostage rescue. Global terrorist attacks motivated the United States to form Delta Force. Charles Beckwith, who was an exchange officer for the SAS at that time, urged the US to create an SAS-like task force who specialize in unconventional warfare and combat insurgency. Pentagon finally allowed Beckwith go forth with his agenda after a steep rise in terrorist attacks in the mid-1970s. Delta Force embarked on its first major mission called Operation Eagle Claw. The goal was to rescue 52 Americans who were held captive in Iran. The mission was a complete failure; the planes transporting Delta members were faulty and crashed into an oncoming helicopter. Since then, Delta Force has evolved by receiving training from elite military leaders and skills in better coordination. Delta Force, since Eagle Claw, has participated in eight more operations.
