Answer 2

I think every place will have a different name for it. In Argentina, by example, a similar police team is called "Unidad Halcón".

Answer 3

In English, "swat" is an actual word, so you pronounce the acronym accordingly. In Spanish, I think you would just spell it out "s-w-a-t."

Answer 4

I know "cuerpo especial de operaciones de la policía". We call them "los Geo".

Answer 5

In Spain, they don't really have an equivalent to SWAT. They have a team of jokers called MATA. I asked a General in the Spanish army what it was and he couldn't tell me exactly letter for letter. He just said it was a shortened version of "matamoscas". I don't know why he was laughing at me!

Heidita, any ideas? - DJ_Huero, Dec 1, 2009
