Formed in 1996 once again because of terrorism. They got their roots during the 1972 Munich Olympic games. The Germany Special Forces modeled themselves after the America Delta force and British SAS. They split themselves into 5 platoons.
Platoon 1 Land Units
Platoon 2 Air Units
Platoon 3 Amphibious Units
Platoon 4 Mountain and Arctic Units
Platoon 5 Sniper Units
And the Command Platoon
These forces have seen action Kosovo, Bosnia and have helped the United States in Afghanistan.
They favor the Heckler and Koch made weapons particularly ump, mp5 , usp tactical pistol, and Remington 870 shotgun. I picked these few weapons because I like them as well. I’m sure we will be seeing these Kommandos more as the war on terror wages on.
