Detașamentul de Căutare-Salvare prin Luptă (DCSL, Combat Search and Rescue Detachment) is an elite special operations forces unit of the Romanian Air Force constituted in 2008.

Its primary task is rescuing downed airmen in enemy territory.

These were first organized as paratrooper regiments, then converted to a brigade and three independent battalions under Air Force command.

The detachment comprises three combat teams all headquartered in Bucharest.
