Eko CobraAustria’s crack counter-terrorism unit featuring 200 men are apparently highly respected for their climbing abilities and experts at Arnold Schwarzenegger impressions.Famous ops: The Cobras are the only unit to have ended a plane hijacking while still actually in the air. In 1996, four Cobras were on board an Aeroflot Tupolev 154 escorting deported prisoners to Lagos. An escaped Nigerian prisoner threatened the aircrew with a knife and demanded to be taken to Germany or South Africa. The Cobras disabled the bloke and handed him to authorities on landing.<img src="http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/1461/ekocobra.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />09. British SASThe SAS eat close target recon and counter-revolutionary warfare for breakfast. They’re at home in mountains, jungles, deserts and urban environments, and are tops at making a fortune writing bestselling books when they retire.Famous ops: Ended the 1980 hostage crisis at the Iranian embassy in London. The troopers employed stun grenades to disorient the terrorists and killed five out of six and saved 19 hostages.<img src="http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/1086/britishsas.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />08.

Special Service Group (SSG)Pakistan’s elite and seriously tooled-up fighting force carry out unconventional warfare, sabotage, intelligence gathering, close quarter battle and espionage.Famous ops: In 1994, Afghan hijackers commandeered a school bus packed with 74 children and eight teachers.
