ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.ย. 2024
- When I was Active Military even I was confused about the TIER system. I have not idea what it meant or how it made a difference in the military. Have you ever been confused about who is the best of the best in the Military branches and which was the highest military tier inside of them? Who the best special operations forces are, who is better than the navy seals, delta force, army rangers and the other warriors out there?! We answer your questions here and explain the differences between each military tier! Hope you learn something new!!

I was attached to Tier Two through JSOC it was pretty badass time. I was USAF DAGRE for 10 years. It was extremely rare we would ever see a Tier One or be with them.
JSOC be doin the hot hot
@@nikkoortiz damn right brother great videos.
I worked on the Talon’s that supported JSOC saw Tier One a few times plus various other nations special forces units.
you were attached to tier two through jsoc? what are you talking about dude
@@barrettrichardson1406 They are a joint unit...
I would argue that the ISA is like the tippy-tippy-top of the Tier 1's due to the nature of their clan ops and how fuckin' spooky they are.
AGREED
There's probably other sneaky beaky units that we haven't heard of doing similar shit
I agree man. Considering the fact that ISA pulls predominantly from CAG, DEVGRU, and RRC. They are spooky as shit and that would be a dream to get to that operational level. Props to people who have made it there.
The CIA has two groups spooked out more than them.
They're ready to fight Thanos.
Yes I needed a explanation of the tiers in the “mailitary” lol XD.
I gotchu!!
WE MUST SERVE AND PROTECT THE MAIL HOORAH
@@AshdenMurphy Thank you for your postal service 🇺🇸
It's MALE-itary...cuz...you know...so many males.
I heard it as mealitary😂
Definitely do more videos like these. The vibe is always cool when you guys colab and it’s informative.
Will do thank you!!!
I knew most of this as a Navy vet (no, not a Seal) and had friends from high school who went Army SF and Seals during Desert Storm era (yes I am old). But I would love to see something about the difference/history of MARSOC and Recon. Great channel! 👍
PS - Nikko, love the short videos, the one you did of Active vs Vets reacting to you videos, as an old Vet - 100% accurate 🤣🤣🤣 keep it up!
LMFAOOOO thank you
SEAL . NOT 🦭 😑
@@nikkoortiz why are reconnaissance marines not tier 2
Great video, currently serving as a sapper in the Australian Defence Force and theres definitely a big difference in terms of the amount of specialised units. Especially when it comes to the rank structure, always a laugh to see our US Army counterparts react to a LCPL leading a fireteam primarily or a section in the absence of a CPL! Though I think the US Marines would be similar in respect to NCO responsibilities.
Thats dope! i wanna do a sapper video!
The only unit that I didn't really know about was the ISA, and I was hyped for seeing 160th SOAR/Night Stalkers in tier two, those guys are the sort of pilots that I'd trust to fly through a tropical rainforest and not break a sweat.
Love that "maleitary"! lol Seal tier 2? Interesting. I love that you entertain AND educate us! love from cold ass GA!
I got you Marie im doin my best!!
@@nikkoortiz you are awesome! many thanks!
Much love from Latvia! Hopefully your channel blows up and make people smile! I enjoy all your Videos and can't wait for Latvian Special forces (Brave Man wins). Thanks for your service.
Thank you for your support!!
@@nikkoortiz Thank you man for the Content! Hopefully you'd be a le to Colab with AngryCops one day
I was surprised AF to see anything about ISA. I ran into some of those guys in Hondo back in the 80s and was briefed by the CO not to even look at them too long.
they be in the back nice and quiet
There's Sardarkar chanting when they walk by

It really makes me happy that you talk about support in a very proficient way. It really makes sense for the civilians to delineate that stuff for them bro. Keep up the good work
Basically, every tier has their mission. Every team has their specific training for said mission. All are great at THEIR mission specifics. Also people will talk shit on airforce, NO ONE talks shit on PJ's.
I was a ranger. I would LOVE for you to deep dive into this further. Keep up the great work brother!
Not me at work chillin in stream…then jumping right over to the YT after showing some love to my fav streamer we’ve raided all while my boss sits behind me 🤷🏼♀️😂 Nikko videos are priorities, esp the ones like this with the learning moments 💯🔥
I appreciate you mermaid lol
@@nikkoortiz I appreciate learning more. Thank you!
There’s literally a guy who was a navy hard hat diver who made it to Delta. Exceedingly rare, but they literally can take anyone who meets the pre requisites.
Hi guys future writer here, as someone who is doing research into our nation military forces I appreciate this very informative video and channel. Thank you your service as well much respect
How about a video exploring the difference between USMC Reconnaissance and Force Reconnaissance; the former are battalion sized elements while the latter are companies, one per division when I was in back in the 80s
We can definatly try doing this!!!
Isa is the new kid on the block for direct action
TACP’s aren’t CCTs... TACPs support conventional units CCTs support solely sof units.
facts
There are TACps in some STSs. So you are correct for the most part, but those AFSOC TACP in an STS are SOF.
@@briangrady367 so many acronyms...
My Grandfather was S.F. and Delta force. He is 71 and could whoop my ass. Those guys are something else.
Hardcore
I think it's worth mentioning that 99.9% of people think that Special Forces refers to all of tiers 1 & 2, if not all 3. Most people don't know it's specifically the "green berets", and that SOCOM and JSOC has a lot of different units - Special Forces is just one particular one. Special forces is not a generic term, at least in the US military.
I first learned about D boy's in Mogadishu!! Black hawk down! Them boys don't play.
No games
1990's I received "THE LETTER", sadly I knew I was already not eligible even for assessment since I wore glasses. I still had to go to the recruiting session though since I was a team leader and was suppose to help identify potential SF/Ranger candidates. I wish laser eye surgery was acceptable back in the day.
My niece's boyfriend has tried to explain to me time and time again how the tier system works, but his brain is still trying to figure out how to explain how he's attached to a CBRN unit lol. This definitely broke it down in a less scatter brained way that was easier to understand
Nikko! Thanks for the informative video! I wasn't surprised about the Seals... But I was about where PJs are! Everyone has such important roles within the military unit! Love the content!!!
Thank you julie I apprecaite the love back!!!
a Seal and a SEAL are NOT the same thing. just saying 😌 🤷
@@joshuatrotter25 yes, Navy SEALS and SEAL Team 6/DEVGRU are two different things.
its almost the same in the German army
so many people forget about the Badass people whos job is to get the Operators to were they need to be
The navy SWCC. I think they have some of the meanest river boats that need looked at. The few videos I seen make it look like they don't play around. Damn it, I need to go to bed and now I am going down a YT rabbit hole.
TH-cam is dangerous
I would love to learn more about MARSOC or delta force! Also your videos with combat arms channel are super informative and fun to watch
Thank you!!
Just keep binging this dudes content lol. He’s got a cool ass personality ngl!
hes got fun stuff to react to so we gotta lol
Love the videos. I was in cadets for a bit I think it would be cool if you could do a reaction video on JRTC
Ill look for a good vid!!
It's neat that cyber/intelligence was covered in tier 1. Usually it's over looked (I guess that's the goal right?).
Nah thats how the world gonna end!
I know that the tier system speaks largely about the operations that the units support but Marine Recon being put in with airborne is a little disappointing, recon was what they pulled from to form the raiders they're a pretty tough group
MARSOC was stood up by 1st. and 2nd FORECON Companies, not RECON, there is a difference.
Really Enjoy these collab videos and breakign down the world of Special Operations. Didn't know you were in MI @Nikko. Would love to see a video speaking on SOT-A / SOT-B selection process and what those types of units do within the SOF community. I was a 35N myself and really enjoyed it.
Gonna slowly break into the intel world!
@Nikko Ortiz yess, do it haha
Slowly and carefully. I was a 35N too, great stuff brother
Would love to see a deep dive into 160th SOAR. 160th is the career goal🙌🏼
The joke at Ft Campbell is that their phone number is SHHHHHH
well try!!!
if you want advice I was at 4/160th out of Lewis as a 47 crew chief for my entire military service. hit me up
@@carsonkouts Absolutely! How can I reach you?
@@claybustersilable well I got rid of Facebook but I can make a profile and just have you message me there
Dude you are 2109153025292/10 you are SOOOOO FUNNY!!!🤣 AND you make the milatary so funnyyyyyy😂😂😂😂 omg im dying 🤣 (your #shorts)
Thank you I appreciate it!!!
Mhm! i watch them everyday! it's been daily since ...........1 year ago
Love to see PJs getting some love. They go to ALL the teir 2 schools as well as extensive medical training. Plus it just takes hella balls to ride a helicopter into a combat zone that is already giving other shootier special forces problems day after day.
bro i literly just watched this video yesterday and i was literly hoping you would make a reaction to it. just got released yessir.
I got you briggs!!!
The Channel "Life is a Spdcial Operation" is great also.
Graat content
I say the Army Special Forces is the most vital unit on this list. Not only are they capable in combat operations, but their best skill is integrating and advising foreign infantry units/rebels in unconventional warfare. That’s why Ukraines military is so lethal in the conflict with Russia. They were trained by the Special Forces since 2015. You can see their training coming in handy.
I wonder how their dive team compares to Navy SEALs
I would disagree, I would say ccts are the best. Especially when they're in 24th sts. Ccts do everything that sf do, but they do a bit more.
I think its actually the Rangers
@@adriankunz3395they beat them in the US military dive team competition
Glad to see Isa getting some love it doesn't happen much. They were called Kia's on base and it took me forever to realize it was a abbreviation for know it alls.
In the intro Nikko pissed off so many law enforcement SWAT officers
When I first watch the video I didn’t know about night stalkers and RRC, also on top of that I knew that Navy SEALS are tier 2 and SEAL team 6 are tier one, because I knew that team six was supposed to confuse the Russians thinking that they were “six” SEALS
YUP YUP!!!
Nikko gives opinion: *blows raspberries*
me: well, this seems informative AF…. LETS GOOO.
LMFAOOOOOOOO thank you ellie
thanks for the explanation
Tryin my best to explain it all!
Mile 22 is such a badass movie
I was in DEP for the Navy after looking at getting contracted for BUD/S after basic, I’d love it if you’d go in depth on some of the other tier 2 units, especially the PJ’s since they get my attention when I hear stories about em. Would love to look at my options and hear more about them from a good source like you since I’m not locked down yet
Check out SARC. It's the Navy's flavor of PJ's but with dive med instead of technical rescue.
Regarding SWCC - as The Fat Electrician so succinctly put it, do you know how fucking badass you need to be to be called the 'Boat Guys' in the fucking Navy?
and USAF PJs are real life battlefield Angels
Have you done a short on the different Chow Halls. Like the day I went to an Air Force chow hall as a Marine and saw that they had Pop-Tarts it blew my mind
Oh actuallt this is a good one!!!
Tbh I'm just giddy SWCC got mentioned. My father was a "river rat" and was crazy seeing the boats n shit they used when I was growing up.
I know when I was in force recon worked with Delta force as much as rangers did. Also apparently the list is changed after 10 years because there are a lot of organizations that have been moved around and apparently upgraded as well
Yup things and names alwasy changing
The mailitary sounds cool bro
its okay
Every SF group has their primary mission, no SF group is the best, they’re just great at what they do.
I don't know a thing you're talking about I just like the videos lol
I appreciate you so much SOLA lol
In the 82nd we were placed with Special Operations Units like Marsoc, Rangers, and ODA all the time. When we went to Iraq in 2006 we were placed directly with task force red, lived in the compound with them. It was described as a OCFI deployment. It was just a three month deployment. We we were attached to MARSOC, that was a 7 month deployment.
I actually heard about this compound from a salty captain, once. Apparently, the Taliban did not want to fuck with them. Like, at all.
Hi Nikko
What up crossharis!
I was a ranger for 6 green beret for 6 and 6 in delta and 4 in the ISA then I woke up
Lmfao love it
Good video man. I liked it a lot.
I feel like US airforce SOST would be cool to review too.
Ill check it out!!!
Today
I
Learned
LETS GOOOO!
Never knew the intelligence service existed.
Definitely interested in hearing more about them
Glad to hear you learn something a little new!!
Thank you nikko for the great info. You guys made it interesting. Made it very easy to understand. Me coming from a military family made it super easy. Keep up the great work bro.
My cousin was in the army his whole life went in out of highschool cause he got in trouble and stayed till they made him retire he climbed all the way up the ranks to Sgt Major and still too this day he's 75 been retired for years I always see him get respect from vets and active servicemen even more so then higher ranking officers I asked him why and he said basically it's cause Sgt Major is earned on the field and Lt and above is earned in a class room. I don't know how true it is but from what I see it must have some truth to it.
Do a video on swcc
Delta force I think is definitely the tip of the spear. I have had many family members serve in the unit and I have a uncle who just made it after spending time on an oda for a longtime. And he’s a fucking badass dude, like a rock hard dude. Complete badass and he’s literally a beast like everyone else.
the best of the best of the best, sir
@@nikkoortiz Yessir! My plan is to try to make it into the unit as well. I just swore in I’m going infantrymen11x with an option 40 contract. I can’t wait!
@@tgreen603 same.
M. I. B🤣
prolly shouldn't share that info online lmao
Nice video nikko
Thank you!!
Love getting all this knowledge! Thanks for helping us learn team.
Thanks for your support jagger!!!
Someones parents watched to much attack on titan!! 🤣
Loving the videos Nikko, keep that shit up! Would love to see a reaction video about our South African Recces.
Ill look into it!
Delta is NOT a "component of special forces that is tier 1"... literally. They don't report to 1st special forces group like green berets... you are wrong on how you said it, smh.
you KNOW you have to put most of my words together lol and they do not report to SF but they ARE listed as 1st special forces operational detachment delta. Aleast the paperwork and meetings are designated as so
Does video on ISA, disappears from ALL social media the next day 🤣
Would be wild lol
@@nikkoortiz 🤣🤣
My Ranger Battalion was definitely tier 2 back in 03-06. I thought that 160th was tier 1. Also the 69th infantry ,a NYANG unit that kicked some serious ass in Iraq. There is a PJ unit about 30 miles from where I live. Those are some hard-core dudes. Delta is def the top shit in the military. Those guys really fucking get after it in a whole different way
You know anything about rangers medics?
@@thegreatdogzilla5855 I know alitte bit I used to assist the medics sometimes, sorry for the delay
The 69th can be pretty cool sometimes
Great content brothers. New subscriber here. I was US Army LRSD. Many people thought we were SOF. Though we lived by the Ranger Creed, we were tier 3 like everyone else. Sure we got better toys like swim gear, zodiacs and toggles on our chutes…we were still tier 3. RLTW! AATW!
In some countries you would be considered as a SOF
DIA has their own super-shooters as part of their operational apparatuses. NEST teams are on par with CAG though most if not all of their shooters have PHDs in nuclear physics, EOD and Nuclear Engineering degrees
😂
Don't know how I came across this channel but it's all I've been watching for the last 3 days. Good shit keep it up!
I apprecate you shawn hope you enjoy!!!
DJ Shipley was born and raised for tier 1 . His dad Don raised him in the seal teams and joined the navy at 17 and graduated seal training at 19 and deployed immediately. Didn’t take him long to end up in DEVGRU. Of course this isn’t the norm but the exception . Really should watch his episode on the Shawn Ryan podcast. Holy shit this dude is incredible
He's tall and buff as hell
I just found your channel and you're a riot to watch! You should do a reaction to paranormal videos. Also, a short on the branches preparing a Thanksgiving meal. 😜
As a civilian, let me see if I got this straight:
Tier 3: The dudes and dudettes that kill people and break stuff with their support staff. AKA THE Military.
Tier 2: Specialized dudes that kill or capture or rescue or break stuff behind enemy lines with better equipment and training.
Tier 1: Very specialized dudes that kill or capture or rescue or steal or break stuff right under enemy noses with the best equipment and training. In the case of ISA, the scary monster in a target's closet.
I'll see myself out now...
Thank you so much and ill have to see if I can put something together!!!
25th ID is the Army’s “show girls” of the US Army! Ya I said it!
Oh snap!!!
Love the vid
Thank you!!
SWCC is Tier 2? I’m retired Navy and this surprised me. I just thought the drove the SEALs around.

WE MOVIN AHMED!!!
Im actually surprised that the seals are Tier 2?!!????
Yuuuuuup see all the facts!
@@nikkoortiz ❤️❤️❤️
Nikko is so articulated. He must've learned to speak when he was 14😂
could you react to the military freefall school by coffee or die on yt?
Yup ill check it out!!!!
Nikko make a video about your time and service what you did and what you got out as. The people are interested.
We have covered all this! Lol
I really hate the teem tier 3 because it’s really vague and harder to define
Really only tier 1 and 2 actually matter as their a great way to group the actual SOF dudes
Tier 2 can be anything form entry level SF Operators to hardened Rangers, seals and PJ’s
While tier 1 are the (Constantly defined by this phrase, by literally everybody) crème de la crème
DEVGRU, RRC, Air forces little mixed group, CIA official tier 1 guys And “Delta Bois”
They even have some CIA Guys that aren’t “Officially” listed as tier 1
But come the fuck on
We both know the CIA doesn’t recruit tier 1/2 veterans guys to run the coffee machines
They recruit them to run the printers
Think rationally man!
Yeah there mission has a more direct outline and we just fill in the blank
yall should try to get foreign vets on to compare the breakdown in units and tears
When the Raiders stood up in ‘06, they took guys from Recon/Force communities and put them through a variation of the SF Q-Course because the Army was whining. The course still resembles it (along with A&S) but with Marine flair. Those of us that were “Special Operations-Capable” back before there was a MARSOC just say that “we were MARSOC before there was MARSOC”…Semper Fi. Great videos BTW, keep us supplied with crayons and there’s NOTHING we won’t do!
ISA -“They did what again!?!? Just SEND ME!!!”
ULTIMATE HOTNESS
DADDY
MOMMY!!
That's not all we did in the 160th but you hit it well enough so thank you for that
Just little knowledge here and there
This was a good video Nikko keep it up
Thank you ill try!!!
Thank you for all the laughs on the bus to Ft Benning can’t wait to see all the videos when I’m done!!
I would say an easy comparison for a civilian is like tier 3 is kinda like a lower level pro sports athlete.
Like...NBA G-league. Definitely pro, better than any normal guy.
Tier 2 is like the NBA. More exclusive, better funding.
And tier 1 is like...the All Stars of the NBA. Lebron, KD, Steph, etc. The absolute best of the best.
Thats kinda a good comparison
Tier 3 are basically just regular people. Some of them are fit, some of them are not. It’s not until you get to tier 2 that you start seeing above average quality.
Not all PJs are SOCOM. Those in rescue squadrons are considered conventional forces.
yo whatttt
I love watching general discharge even tho idk what the fuck is going on half the time it’s super interesting . But it’s great that you explain it
I'd love some videos with this guy about more specific groups
Well do our best!
"Badass uber drivers" love the description XD
Love the video! Would love for y’all to dive deeper into the PJs! Such a unique group with wide skill set. Thanks!
I wanna bring some of my PJ buddies on to talk!!
What does PJ stand for?
@@nanpabasico9932 Pararescuemen
@@OdinsVikingr thank you!
PJs don't see action
Some people low key really need this 😂
Exactly why we had to do this lol
Great video! I've been following you both and it's great to see you guys collab.
Thank you we appreciate you!!!
Navy seal: did you see my book
Delta operator: did you see how nice the grass looks on base. I did that.
