U.S. Army - Special Forces
Special Forces Soldiers carry the most advanced equipment in order to complete the most sensitive missions. Below, you'll find some of the gear Green Berets use in the field.
Halo Helmet
High-Altitude Low-Opening (HALO) jumps are made from extreme heights, requiring an oxygen supply. The high altitude allows entire teams, undetected by radar, to infiltrate a combat area.
Advance Ram Air Parachute System
This parachute is specially designed for HALO jumps and can function reliably in severe environmental conditions.
Night Vision
This advanced technology allows Special Forces Soldiers to see during night operations or in dark environments.
Re-Breather
The Re-Breather is a simple underwater breathing device allowing Special Forces Soldiers to navigate rivers and streams unnoticed.
Kayak
Kayaks allow Special Forces Soldiers to move silently through rivers and lakes.
Inflatable Boat
Operatives use these lightweight boats to execute amphibious (water to shore) landings, or to launch from a helicopter.
Long-Range Communications
Special Forces Soldiers use the latest technology to communicate, whether it's radio, text messages or through a satellite computer.
M-4 Carbine
The M-4 Carbine rifle is lightweight and customizable, making it the Special Forces Soldier's ideal choice for a wide variety of small-unit missions.
M9 Pistol
The M9 Pistol is a semi-automatic, double action pistol that has a rail system to allow attachment of an Integrated Laser White Light Pointer (ILWLP). The ILWLP provides a tactical advantage in close combat operations and has resulted in increased lethality and survivability for Special Forces Soldiers.
Nett Warrior
Nett Warrior is an integrated dismounted leader situational awareness system for use during combat operations.
