SWAT deployment

Wobei das Akronym sowohl als 'special weapons and tactics' wie auch als 'special weapons assault team' gefunden wird. Gemeint ist hier sicher der konkrete Einsatz, nicht das planerisch/analytische auf höherer Ebene.

Ihre Quelle habe ich schon erkannt; sie ist aber nicht NS. Siehe meine nachgereichten Quellen oben. Grüße.
agree Michele Johnson : Americans tend to say "SWAT team," although it's redundant. I prefer "SWAT team action" to deployment, but SWAT is definitely the right lingo for the target audience.

neutral hazmatgerman (X) : Eine task force ist doch eher eine fallgebundene Arbeitsgruppe (viz 3 KOG-Einträge); hier geht es um die Ausputzer vor Ort.

neutral Michele Johnson : I'm going to have to agree with hazmat here. When I hear task force, I think of a broad committee meeting at a town hall to discuss some problem, maybe speeding or Neighborhood Watch. Here they surely mean the boys with the big guns though.
