Special purpose, careful planning, unique methods, diverse means, sudden concealment, quick decision and other characteristics supplement: the wide application of special operations in the military field has promoted the continuous updating of special operations theory. With the development of special operations in local wars, regional conflicts and emergencies, the tactical theory of special operations has gradually stepped out of the mysterious veil. The main tactics adopted by the special forces are: secret infiltration, surprise attack, secret infiltration and surprise attack, which refers to taking various covert maneuvers to enter the enemy's rear or attack the target in depth, and taking advantage of "beating, bombing and breaking" to take the enemy by surprise and immediately subdue him in a passive position. This is a common tactical means for special forces to carry out operations behind enemy lines. Its main purpose is to directly achieve specific strategic and operational objectives or create favorable conditions for strategic and operational actions through covert and sudden attacks on important enemy targets. The particularity of special operations and the rapidity of action require that the tactical actions of special forces must be hidden, sudden and rapid. Judging from the battles or battles that special forces have participated in, there are many successful cases of tactical means such as secret infiltration and sudden attack. For example, on 1968 10 10/day, Israeli special forces sent 18 paratroopers to sneak into the Naga hammadi Power Station and the Kenona Dam in Egypt, suddenly attacking the Egyptian defenders, and using time bombs to blow up the important equipment of the power station and destroy the main power transmission line from Aswan to Cairo. With the small and efficient high-tech weapons equipped with special forces, it has brought more advanced technical support for special forces to carry out secret infiltration and sudden attacks, and this tactic will be more widely used by special forces. Long-range strike, vertical blitz and vertical blitz by elite soldiers refer to the formation of a lean and synthetic special force to achieve a specific strategic or operational purpose, and the use of air mobile tools to maneuver over a long distance, suddenly "magic soldiers fall from the sky" across the deep targets behind the enemy lines and carry out lightning attacks on the enemy. The stealth of high-tech weapons and equipment and the enhancement of machine power and assault force provide a broader application space for special forces to carry out long-range attacks and vertical blitzkrieg. For example, in the early 1980s, the US military raided Grenada, and the special forces adopted the tactical means of elite soldiers' long-range attack and vertical lightning strike, which achieved great success. Grenada is more than 2,000 kilometers away from the United States and the Caribbean. The US special forces flew directly to Grenada from Barbados, the sea and three waiting points at home, and suddenly landed at the Pearl Airport and the terminal Salins Airport in Grenada by a combination of plane landing and parachute landing. They occupied St. George, the capital of Grenada, in three days and ended the fighting in eight days. In the Gulf War of 199 1 and the recent war on terrorism in Afghanistan, the special forces of the United States and Britain also landed directly near the target by helicopter many times, hitting the target vertically. High-tech local wars are sudden and short-lasting, and the warring sides are not necessarily adjacent. With advanced weapons and equipment, warring countries, especially military powers, will adopt more tactics of long-range attack and vertical attack. Straight to the point, joint encirclement and suppression, and joint encirclement and suppression refer to using several special forces to surround the enemy from different directions to support the key targets of the war. With the rising status and role of special operations, many countries have set up special forces in various services. Sometimes, in order to attack the key targets of the enemy, they emphasize the joint encirclement of the targets by special forces of various services. In the wars of raiding Grenada, invading Panama and blitzkrieg Qaddafi, the United States adopted a variety of joint operations of military special forces, which directly won the "hearts" of three countries and played a prominent role in achieving the purpose of the war. In particular, the U.S. military raided Grenada with the capital St. George as the direct target, and the air force special forces arrived in the battlefield area first, controlling the airspace and creating conditions for the deployment of airborne troops; The US Army Special Forces took the lead in attacking and launched a life-and-death struggle with Grenada's elite troops. Navy special forces "Seals" went deep into the "tiger's den" and rescued the overthrown Governor of Grenada. The excellent joint encirclement and suppression operations of the special operations forces of the US Army, Navy and Air Force have made great contributions to winning the war. Because the tactics of taking the key directly and combining siege can quickly achieve the purpose of campaign and battle, this tactic will be paid more and more attention by special forces. Camouflage infiltration, internal and external attack, and internal and external attack refer to special warfare players who disguise themselves as civilians or enemy military personnel, blend into the enemy's interior or near important targets in the rear, and suddenly attack and cooperate with the troops in front to form internal and external attack. In modern local wars, there are many precedents for special forces to adopt disguised invasion and internal and external attack tactics. For example, in the Fourth Middle East War, in order to turn the tide, Israel used dozens of chariots painted with Egyptian military emblems to disguise themselves as "Egyptian convoys", swaggered past the warning positions of the Egyptian army, suddenly raided the Egyptian army, and erected two pontoons near Abu Sultan station north of Great Bitter Lake, which made a large number of Israeli armored troops enter the west bank of the canal, cut off the retreat of the Egyptian army, and formed a situation of being attacked on both sides, forcing the Egyptian army to turn from defensive to offensive at one stroke. In the fight against terrorism, it is also an effective tactic for special forces to adopt disguised infiltration and attack from inside and outside. When Russian special forces attacked Chechen terrorists, they infiltrated Chechen gangsters twice in disguise and adopted internal cooperation to achieve the goal that it was difficult for large forces to encircle and suppress. From the development point of view, in the future military struggles such as anti-armed riots, anti-terrorism and anti-ethnic separatism, special forces will be able to receive miraculous effects that are difficult to achieve by other means, and often have new ideas. Digging the "eye" leads to paralysis, and breaking the "eye" leads to paralysis. Breaking refers to sending a capable air, sea or ground special operations team to infiltrate the enemy's strategic rear or campaign depth and attack the enemy's radar and other surveillance systems. In high-tech local wars, to carry out long-range air strikes, we must first destroy the enemy's radar surveillance system to pave the way for air strikes. In the Gulf War, before the multinational forces carried out air strikes against Iraq, the 1 Special Operations Wing of the US Air Force was divided into two groups, each of which took six helicopters, and evaded the radar and observation posts of the Iraqi army at a height of less than 150 meters at night. After approaching the target, it destroyed two radar stations at the same time in five seconds, gouged out the "eyes" of the Iraqi army, destroyed the air defense early warning network of the Iraqi army, and created a prerequisite for the air raid attempt. In the future high-tech war, reconnaissance, surveillance, communication and early warning systems are the most sensitive and critical targets of the army, and their survival has a very important impact on the army's operational command and operational potential. Therefore, the paralysis caused by digging "eyes" and special warfare will be paid more and more attention in special forces. Pretend to be hostile and fight back instantly. Pretend to be hostile and fight back in an instant. When terrorists or other criminals take hostages or occupy favorable conditions, which is not convenient for hard attack, they pretend to agree to the conditions put forward by the enemy, making them feel numb and relaxed, and quickly counterattack and control the enemy when the fighter plane appears. For example, 1977, 10 In June, the former West German special forces rescued the hostages held by terrorists at Rome airport in Italy, that is, by repeatedly talking with terrorists, pretending to agree to their conditions, deliberately delaying time, distracting terrorists, weakening their vigilance and disintegrating their psychological defense; At the same time, 6 1 special warfare team members sneaked up to the plane hijacked by terrorists in the dark and suddenly attacked the terrorists with lightning speed. The whole rescue operation took only 1 minute and 46 seconds. Pretending to be hostile and fighting back instantly can minimize the casualties and material losses of our own personnel. When dealing with terrorists and violent criminals, this tactic will be widely used to locate behind enemy lines, guide attacks to locate behind enemy lines and guide attacks. It means that members of special forces secretly sneak into the enemy's depth, use advanced reconnaissance and positioning equipment to find out the position of important targets in the enemy's depth, send information back to the command center in time, and guide aviation or long-range strike weapons to carry out precise strikes. With the continuous development of weapons and equipment of special forces, advanced reconnaissance, monitoring and communication equipment such as infrared night vision device, navigation and positioning system and portable satellite communication equipment have been widely used in the reconnaissance behind enemy lines in special operations, which greatly improved the positioning accuracy and information transmission speed of various targets and played a key role in destroying key enemy targets in time. In the Gulf War, the Kosovo War and the recent war against terrorism in Afghanistan, US special forces have sneaked into the enemy's depth to instruct the air strike targets. For example, in the Gulf War, in order to grasp the accurate information of the Iraqi Scud missile launching position, the US military sent a special team to sneak into the desolate desert hinterland of Iraq, searched the Iraqi Scud missile launcher with high-powered night vision telescope, and then quickly located it with GPS locator, and sent accurate coordinate data back to the headquarters of multinational forces. As soon as the special warfare team members left the area, 26 Iraqi missiles were hit by American air-to-surface missiles. In the American war on terrorism against Afghanistan, American special forces sneaked into Afghanistan ahead of time to spy on the important targets of Taliban terrorist organizations, which provided a reliable guarantee for the implementation of precision strikes. On the night of 20065438+011/the advanced Predator unmanned reconnaissance plane was remotely controlled by American special warfare team members, and the Taliban senior leaders were found to be active in a hotel, so the images were quickly transmitted to the American combat command center. Three fighters hovering over Kabul suddenly fired missiles after receiving instructions, and the hotel was instantly reduced to ashes. In the local war where special operations tend to be three-dimensional in the future, locating the enemy's rear and guiding the attack will become the common tactics of special operations.
