What Does SWAT Stand For?
SWAT stands for Special Weapons Assault Team
SWAT, or Special Weapons Assault Team, is a specialized tactical unit within law enforcement agencies designed to handle high-risk operations that require advanced training, equipment, and strategic planning. SWAT teams are typically deployed in situations such as hostage rescues, counter-terrorism efforts, and armed standoffs, where conventional law enforcement methods may be insufficient. Their training includes close-quarters combat, negotiation techniques, and the use of specialized weaponry and technology, making them a critical resource for maintaining public safety in extreme situations.
