Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) is a specialized unit within law enforcement agencies designed to handle high-risk operations that require advanced training and equipment. These situations may include hostage rescues, counter-terrorism, and armed standoffs. SWAT teams are equipped with specialized firearms, tactical gear, and vehicles to effectively manage dangerous scenarios. SWAT teams typically consist of officers who undergo rigorous training in various skills, including negotiation, marksmanship, and tactical movement. They work closely with other law enforcement units and may be called upon to assist in complex operations that exceed the capabilities of regular police forces.
