Often, the Spetsnaz are thought of as Army commando units.
In reality, however, Spetsnaz are not a specific tactical unit but a more general clandestine force which were deployed at the behest of the Soviet intelligence security services for special missions.

"The Spetznas were armed with the new, elite rifle: an AK-47. However, since it was an experimental rifle, they also carried the other AK-47. Additionally, they were trained in standard Soviet weapons, such as the AK-47, the machine-AK-47, the sniper AK-47, and the AK-47 with a rocket attached."

The Russians have realized that the AK platform can provide almost all their military small arms requirements so they have upgraded to the "AK 100" system, which provides submachine guns, carbines, assault rifles in a variety of configurations, light machine guns, designate marksman/sniper rifles, semi or full auto shotguns, also semi auto hunting rifles to supply their military, police, security, civilian and export needs, with the added benefit of vastly decreased production costs, less tooling setups, increased interchangeability of parts, and the ability to suddenly increase production of any configuration to suit a particular need.

A friend of mine was in Spetznaz in Afghanistan. He was from Belorussia. He told me some stories....He just looks like a regular guy, not even big or something, but he did things i have very big respect for! He now lives quietly in Belgium, with wife and kids. He is now also godfather of my 2 kids. He participated in a raid to capture a high ranking mujahedeen. They succeeded btw. He also told me about how they monitored communications between mujahedeen from a very long distance, I was baffled about the technology they already had back then. He's very well spoken, very intelligent and polite person. If you would see him on the street, you would never think he's a spetznaz/GRU veteran, and he also doesn't like to brag about it. He did his job, lost some friends back then, and made it back home. That's the most important.

Spetsnaz is a contraction of their name in Russian, “chasti spetsial naznacheniya nogo”, or “troops of special designation”. The spetsnaz were organized to be like the American Green Berets, but with more focus on direct action and sabotage. The GRU Spetnaz is the best of the best, although KGB spets gruppe Al’fa (Alpha) would argue that designation. The GRU is military intelligence, while the KGB is ostensibly civilian, like the CIA. GRU Desant are spetsnaz divers, the equivalent of Navy SEALs. KGB Vympel is a murder team...government trained and financed assassins. KGB OMON are oriented towards keeping the peace in prisons.
