Do you know the differences between the Green Hat and Delta Forces forces? Follow us on to introduce you to the secret tips of the strangest US military forces.
Special Forces of the Green Hat and Delta Force are among the most elite and mysterious people in the US military. But who are these people and what missions do they do?
Differences of Green Hat and Delta Force
Each of the branches of the US Armed Forces has its own special operations. For example, maritime rangers, air force paratroopers and marine special forces can be mentioned. Although some of these forces are more well -known, sometimes the boundary between them becomes ambiguous, and it is difficult to identify differences such as green hats and delta force.
Both the Green Hat and Delta Force groups are a member of the US Army, and beyond the duties of ordinary soldiers, they carry out complex and special missions. Both units train forces that have a unique combination of technical skills, physical endurance, intelligence and quick decision making. Also, both emphasize the high physical fitness of their forces.
But one of their most important differences is how to recruit. Green hats, in addition to recruiting the military, also allow direct recruitment from civilian citizens. They can join the unit by signing the 18X special forces contract and through all the green hats training courses. In contrast, having at least four years of compulsory active service is mandatory to enter the power of the Delta. In addition, most Delta Force members are selected from other special forces, including green hats. Other differences between the two units are much wider, and some of them will probably never be officially published. The reason is that the US government has not formally approved the existence of the Delta force.
Green hats are officially exist but Delta Forces No
You can visit the Go Army website and submit your request to join the Green Hat Special Forces Unit to review your request. This website describes the conditions needed to become a green hat in the form of job ads. Depending on whether or not you have a history of serving the army, there is a specific set of strict criteria. These criteria include age restrictions, high -level fitness, at least 110 score in ASVAB test for civilian applicants, having a specific military rank for military personnel and more.
But if you are looking for a website for viewing job ads, salaries and benefits, or detailed details of training and requirements, your search will fail. The reason for this is very strange: formally, the power of the Delta does not exist. Yes, despite the worldwide fame of this force and even making a film starring Chuck Norris in 1986, the US government has never formally confirmed that such an elite team of special forces exist and with The name of the Delta force is known. All the information we have about this unit has been obtained through interviews that some former or current members of Delta have participated.
Green hats are hired from the army, but Delta Forces from anywhere
Green Hat is just one of the branches of the Special Operations Forces (SOF) of the US Army; Units such as Rangers and Knight Stucks are also among these forces. As mentioned, each of the branches of the US Armed Forces has its own special operations units. Each of these groups operate under a specific command structure. For example, maritime rangers are under the command of Marine Special Operations (Marsoc), which includes a support unit and office personnel with about 3500 people. Finally, all of these special military units, including the Green Hat, are under the command of the US Special Operations (USOCOM). The USSOCOM is a joint military agency that oversees all US Armed Forces operations.
In the case of Delta Force, regardless of which they are officially considered a subsidiary of the army, they attract their troops from all military branches. In fact, they are so elite that they are even empowered by other special forces. “At the time of my service, about 60 percent of Delta’s members of the Green Hat, 39 percent of Ranger and only 1 percent were civilians such as chefs, clergy or mechanics,” says one member of the Delta Force. He adds that over time, the number of other special forces, such as the Air Force paratroopers and the marine rangers who joined the Delta force, has increased. Of course, civilian officers must reach at least a crime to join the Delta force, and all members of the unit must have at least four years of service.
Green Hat and Delta Force have different physical requirements
The physical requirements for joining the special forces of the army are far beyond the usual fitness. While the Army Martial Arts Preparation Test (ACFT) includes tests such as two speeds, stretching, throwing, boards, and common club exercises such as lifting and swimming, they need much higher level to enter specific units such as green hats. Green hats expect volunteers to get very high in all physical test components. For example, doing 66 repetitions of the landing and running 2 miles at 14:24 is only part of the minimum requirements. After passing the initial exams, volunteers who succeed are entering a six -week special training course. Thereafter, a 53 -week special forces (equivalent to a full year) are awaiting them. These courses include very difficult exercises and complex operational simulations that reach its peak in a scene attack on the imaginary country.
The Delta Force force mainly absorbs force from elite forces such as green hats, marine special forces, marine rangers and air force paratroopers. However, it is noteworthy that about 90 % of these people are rejected in Delta’s difficult and overwhelming tests. As far as public information is available, Delta input tests include some of the similar tests of the Army’s Martial Arts Preparation Test (ACFT). However, these tests are only part of the measurement criteria. There are also much harder and more difficult tests. For example, swimming 100 meters with military boots and traveling a 65 -kilometer route on roughly 20 -kg backpacks are the only examples of these tests. This is just the beginning of the road. After these steps, the candidates enter the evaluation and selection phase (A&S), which lasts for three to four weeks. Candidates then enter the six -month operator training course (OTC). The candidates are then monitored to make sure they have the necessary abilities.
Green hats and Delta Forces carry out different missions
Given the high level of expertise and skill of green hats and delta, the question arises as to what each of them specializes in doing? The US Special Operations Command, due to the sensitive nature of its missions, usually does not publish detailed details of its units under the command. Therefore, accurate comparison of green and delta hats missions is accompanied by challenges. However, in general, these two units focus on different missions.
When it comes to green hats, the word “bohemian” comes to mind. According to information provided by Go Army, green hats participate in a wide range of high complex military operations. These operations include identification in enemy areas, anti -riot operations and bohemian martial arts such as support for local resistance forces. Is. In the case of Delta Force, their main expertise in the rescue operation is hostage.
Green Hat and Delta Force differ in terms of number of power
Green hat forces are divided into specific operational groups. These groups are known for numbers 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10. In addition, groups 19 and 20 also work in the National Guard and usually carry out internal missions. Each green hat group has approximately 3,000 staff. Therefore, the total staff of all active green hat groups reaches about 21,000.
In contrast, Delta force has a very different structure and size. According to available information, the Delta has a total of about 2,000 personnel, of which only 300 to 400 of them participate in direct operations. The rest of the personnel perform support, information, medical and other related tasks. By modeling the British Special Airlines (SAS), the Delta force is divided into six squadrons: Squadors A, B, C and D mainly perform aggressive tasks, Squadors E performs secret tasks and Gslisters. Martial Arts Squadran also supports other squadron operations and includes information, medical and other specialties. However, the exact number of personnel in each squadrone has not been published publicly.
