Azerbaijani Special Forces — Azerbaijani Land Forces — Force Atlas

概要

成立於1999年4月、總部設於巴庫附近Yashma的特種部隊——承擔了2020年決定性步兵戰鬥的部隊，包括對Shusha的突擊；其任職十年的司令於2024年轉任陸軍司令。

廣泛活動地區: Not sector-bound; headquartered near Baku and committed across the front in 2020 and 2023
重要歷史: Azerbaijan's special forces were established on 30 April 1999 under the Ministry of Defence, with headquarters at Yashma on the Absheron coast, and trained to Turkish standards over the following two decades. Their war was 2020: published accounts attribute to them the infantry advance through the forested highlands to Shusha and the assault that took the town, the decisive act of the war. Their commander from 2014, Hikmat Mirzayev, was appointed deputy defence minister and commander of the Land Forces in January 2024 — the clearest sign of what the ministry took the war's lesson to be. The relationship between the special forces and the commando brigades created after 2020 is not published; both are recorded under the Land Forces as compiled references place them.
優勢: Demonstrated capability at campaign-decisive scale, and the institutional prestige that has since shaped the whole ground force.
限制: A record built against one opponent in one terrain, and an organisation whose structure below headquarters is not published. No strength, holdings or readiness are recorded.
