Special police are divided into armed police special police and public security special police. Public security special police are divided into formal police officers and assistant police officers. The official special police are civil servants and need to take the civil service exam. Special police assistants are recruited by themselves within the public security special police. Armed police special police, belonging to the active forces, are divided into armed police special police officers and soldiers. If you are a soldier of the armed police special police, you will usually go to the army first, starting with the conscripts, because the special police of the armed police force are selected from excellent conscripts and have certain specialties, such as climbing, sniper and bomb disposal. If you are an officer of the Armed Police Special Police, you have to take an examination of the Armed Police Command Academy (a police academy, but not an ordinary police academy, that is, a military academy in plain English). Officially employed students of the Armed Police Command Academy are directly awarded the rank of lieutenant (that is, one bar and two stars) after graduation, which is equivalent to the official police officers of the Public Security Special Police.

Special police is a vague concept, which mainly has the following meanings:

1. In the traditional sense, special police refers to the military and police secret service armed system whose main tasks are anti-terrorism, domestic stability, arresting criminals/terrorists with strong firepower, rescuing hostages and anti-hijacking, and whose tactical core is CQB tactics, mainly including police with strong firepower and armed (such as SWAT) and military anti-terrorism special forces whose main tasks are to participate in military wars.

2. "Special Police" is also a kind of police in China's public security system, which refers to a mobile system in the public security system, including commandos (special police in the traditional sense), riot police, armed patrols and other public security police with automatic firepower.

3. The special police referred to by the folk and domestic media generally refer to the special police of public security or foreign police in a narrow sense.

4. refers to the swat team members.

Police special police

The so-called "public security special police" in China is a kind of police with no standard and inaccurate definition. They are not commandos like the special police we imagined, but a mobile system including riot police, armed patrols, special police in the traditional sense (called "commandos" by the public security) and other powerful police in the public security system. In fact, today's public security almost calls all mobile police forces special police.

Public security special police mainly include the following categories:

1. The police call it "commando". They are the "special police" in the traditional sense of our consciousness. Their functions are similar to SWAT, and their main functions are to rescue hostages, defuse explosions and fight terrorism. The commandos of the public security system are different from Falcon, Flying Tigers and GSG9. They are special forces, and swat is just a policeman.

2. Public security "patrol special police". My main occupation is to patrol the streets with a gun according to the command of the public security department. In case of emergency or receiving the alarm of "1 10", I will arrive at the crime scene at the first time. If we find that there is not enough manpower and firepower, we will consider requesting the commando and the armed police force for support.

3. Public security riot police. Refers to the police force that specializes in suppressing riots, maintaining the order of public activities and forcibly dissolving demonstrators.

At present, the quality level of the so-called "special police" of urban public security organs in China is uneven, ranging from gathering people to fighting against hijacking. Even the narrow sense of the police "commando" is not optimistic. Public security special police may still need a long way to develop, and we expect and believe that the future of public security special police will be better and better!

Main responsibilities:

1. Provide strength for public security organs.

2. Participate in handling violent terrorist crimes and serious violent crimes.

The internal security forces of China Armed Police Force are from the special squadron to the special detachment. It is an elite force dedicated to dealing with serious violent crimes and terrorist activities such as hijacking. The equipment configuration of the armed police secret service is improving, and the training and selection of elite troops and even special forces are often strict or even extremely demanding because of their characteristics. Among them, the Falcon Commando (SPC) and Snow Leopard Commando of the Beijing Armed Police Special Service are the world's leading special forces.
