In 1962, the 1st specialized force unit was formed and operated from the Kuwait 15th Mubarak Armored Brigade.

During that time, the 1st specialized force unit operated extensively and trained continuously in the deserts of Kuwait.

With the Lebanese Civil War in 1975, units of the Kuwait 25th Commando Brigade were sent to Lebanon to protect the Kuwaiti Embassy in Beirut.

The commandos are responsible for raiding Iraqi dredgers to prevent them from digging in Kuwaiti territorial waters.

The unit raided a big number of ships carrying supplies and ammunition for the Houthi movement coming from iran.

In parallel application with the 25th Commando and mainly at the level of leading Arab international diplomacy and humanitarianism, the State of Kuwait played a supporting pivotal role in bringing the Lebanese Civil War to a halt (1975–1990).

The unit showed great performance in Yemen and iraq, American special forces were impressed by the quality and physical capabilities of the brigade.
