INSFOC
The Indonesian Navy Special Force and Operations Command is an elite special operations forces of the Indonesian Navy. It is a combined detachment formed from selected personnel of the Navy's Underwater Special Unit, the Marine Corps' Amphibious Reconnaissance Battalion, and Detasemen Jala Mangkara.
The Detachment was formed in 2006 by the Chief of the Indonesian Armed Forces to counter maritime strategic threats including terrorism and sabotage. Despite the specific reason for its formation, as in the case of any other special operations forces around the world, the Detachment is also fully trained in conducting reconnaissance, unconventional warfare, and clandestine behind-enemy-lines operations.
