Special Services Wing

[Silent Soldier]

I think the SSG is the best. The are by far the oldest and most experience special force of the Pakistan Army. The roots of all the others (SSGN or SSW) lie with SSG. Just look at the uniform. The SSG has the wing which has been adopted by the SSGN and SSW. Also I feel that the SSG is more tried and tested in battle. There performance has been excellent whether it be in anti-terrorist operations (namingly the GHQ operation) or in the Swat operation. We will have to see if the other forces enjoy similar success.

The precursor to the SSW, the Special Airwarfare Wing fought in the 1971 Winter War. They were assigned to operated in Jammuand Kashmir and Dhaka, East-Pakistan. They were also kept standing by for airborne assault at different IAF bases. During 1980s, the SSW were assigned to operated alongside Army special forces in areas bordering Afghanistan. Recently, the SSW were dispatched with 50th Airborne Division of Pakistan Army and the Special Service Group (SSG). During the conflict, the SSW unit have participated in different helo borne and airborne assaults during recent SWAT and Wazirstan operations.

Since the formation of SSW in 2004, they have been engaged in fighting against militants in Pakistan's NWFP region.

Yes but neither is a part of the other...they are independent divisions.
