Special Air Service or Delta Force?

Who succesfully freed the Iranian hostages from the embasy in London.

Who completely loused up their attempt to free the American Hostages in Tehran.

What makes the best Special forces is Training and innovation, not firepower.

I would rank the best in the world as follows:

1. British
2. Israeli ( remember Entebbe)
3 The French
4 The Americans

Sure everyone would like to think their country is the best but look at their record.Read Andy McNab or talk to Sir Ranulf Fiennes.

Delta Force all the way.

I can't help but mention the idea that all americans will vote for the delta force and all the brits will vote for the special air service. i am american by the way.

Delta Force. You will have access to the lastest weapons by the #1 super power in the world. I mean, really, how often do you hear of the Special Air Service except for in Brittain? Delta force is far more recognized.

Why does one have to be better than the other???
Always seemed to me that the differences were in the individual NOT the unit.
Maybe a little boy in the cub scouts will be the best trained solder next week.

Delta Force...it is the most elite corps out there. SAS is 2 steps behind usually due to intel and tech. This goes for both british and U.S. Forces. SAS tends to be more "by the book" and Delta Force tends to be more "improvised"

i personally think that the british armed forces are more professional and better trained than the americians

SAS. They invented professionalism in the army.

The SAS, they invented the special forces thing and are widely acknowledged as the best even by American Generals.

SAS, even other countries special forces admit they are the best.

Without a doubt the special air service are the best SF in the world.

SAS are 2 steps behind?? You must be 2 steps behind if you think that old pal. I would try 2 steps in front.

There is an old saying.

The Yanks boot Down the front Door whilst The Brits Sneak in the side Window.

The SAS everyone knows that!
Delta force=all the gear, no idea!

Seriously about the forces, you'd never hear an RAF pilot saying "we're goin' a jail dude"

SAS without a doubt.

SAS without doubt, Chuck Norris made delta force famous with his movie.

The SAS are by far more specialised and professional.One person says why dint you hear about them - because they dint blow their own trumpet all the time.They also have the best equipment available and work with the forces of many nations including the Americans but this is not always publicised and anonymity is encouraged as they do undercover work.

I have to say the SAS dominates!

Panama Jack

SAS hands down.

The Black Watch..the US used them in Iraq when they couldn't handle the situation and called on Britain to help out against the insurgent triangle of death.

Both are very good. Especially now Delta are as experienced as the SAS. Both units performed well in Iraq and had a lot to do with the fall of AQ in Baghdad. When it comes to kicking doors down each as good as each other. However long range recom missions such as setting up high altitude ops i would say the SAS are better. It's quite easy to compare the two even though people say it's not. Compare two separate missions by Delta and SAS. When Delta (with the Rangers) went into Somalia they flew in by helicopter to capture a warlord. Disaster - many US soldiers died. A similar operation by the SAS (and Paras) was flying into the Sierra Leone jungle to rescue kidnapped Irish soldiers from rebels (West side boys). Only 1 British fatality and the West Side Boys wiped off the face of the earth. Nuff said!
