Leroy Thompson's Top 10 Counterterrorist Units: Kitbash No. 7 - Australian TAG
9
The Tactical Assault Groups are the premier counter-terrorism units of Australia. The two TAGs, East and West, are structured to conduct offensive domestic counter-terrorist (CT) operations focusing on incident resolution and the recovery of hostages. They maintain a short notice capability to conduct military operations beyond the scope of State and Federal Police tactical teams. These aims are achieved through various highly specialised skill sets, niche capabilities and supporting Australian Defence Force (ADF) units.
The two units: TAG West, and the other TAG East; each protect a different domestic geographical area, with TAG (West) having the primary task of Overseas Recovery/Counter-Terrorism . The units draw their members from other elite units within the Australian Defence Force, with each TAG unit drawing from different parent units.
TAG West is responsible for the areas of Western Australia, South Australia, Northern Territory,outlying Australian island territories and Overseas area of interests. TAG West draws its members from the Special Air Service Regiment. Due to the SASR's position as the most elite unit in the Australian military, TAG West has the reputation of being the senior of the two TAG units.
TAG East is responsible for the areas of Tasmania, Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Jervis Bay Territory, Australian Capital Territory and other outlying Australian island territories. TAG East draws its members from the 4th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment (Commando), supplemented by a small number of subject-matter expert SASR personnel and the Royal Australian Navy's Clearance Diving Teams. The Royal Australian Navy component consists of an Operations Officer, a Clearance Diver (CD) assault platoon, one team of CD maritime snipers, and an Underwater Medic.
Both TAG's have their own world class training facilities including advanced outdoor close quarters battle ranges, MOUT villages, urban CT complexs, full size aircraft mock-ups, and sniper ranges. (Taken from Wikipedia)
