This is a list of active police tactical units .
Definition
Police tactical units are specialized units of a police force tasked with resolving high risk / critical incidents, including:
high risk armed offender / suspect searches / apprehensions including arrest warrants [1]
high risk search warrants involving an armed / dangerous offender / suspect[1]
siege / barricade incidents involving an armed offender / suspect[1]
domestic counter-terrorism incidents such as hostage rescue and / or armed intervention (including units that may be granted authority for overseas operations)[1]
In the United States , police tactical units are known by the generic term Special Weapons And Tactics (SWAT) team (other countries have adopted this term).[2] In Australia , the term police tactical group is used for police tactical units.[3] The European Union uses the term special intervention unit for national counter terrorist police tactical units.[4]
