United States

Special mission units are commanded and controlled by Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) of U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). In addition to performing highly classified activities the special mission units are also tasked with "special missions", sometimes referring to unconventional warfare, counter-terrorist activities, direct action, Special reconnaissance, and/or black operations.^[2][3][4][5] So far, only four SMUs have been publicly disclosed:

• The Army's 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment – Delta
• The Army's 75th Ranger Regiment: Regimental Reconnaissance Company
• The Navy's Naval Special Warfare Development Group (DEVGRU)
• The Air Force's 24th Special Tactics Squadron (24 STS)^{[6][7][8][9][10][11][12]}

Units from the Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment and 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (160th SOAR) are controlled by JSOC when deployed as part of JSOC Task Forces such as Task Force 121 and Task Force 145.^{[13][14][15][16]}

The Intelligence Support Activity (ISA) is also under JSOC and has been referred to as a special mission unit.^{[17][7][9][10]} The ISA collects specific target intelligence prior to SMU missions, and provides signals support, etc. during those mission.^[7][9][10] The Army once maintained the ISA, but after the September 11 attacks, the Pentagon shifted direct control to Joint Special Operations Command at Fort Bragg, NC.^[18]
