Thunder Squad

The Thunder Squad (Chinese: 霹靂小組; pinyin: Pīlì Xiǎozǔ) are a local police tactical unit within the jurisdiction of Taiwan.

[1][2] They are highly trained and responsible for carrying out anti-irregular military, counterterrorism, executive protection, high-risk arrests, hostage rescue, support crowd control, tactical special operations, and other dangerous law enforcement duties.

The Thunder Squad was established in 1985 and modeled after the SWAT units in the United States.

The relevant unit at the national level in the Republic of China is the NPA SOG, and their patches are similar to those of the Thunder Squad.
