The forces for each branch tend to focus on different types of missions or roles, although sometimes those duties overlap. And while all special forces face rigorous training, the Navy SEALs are often considered the best and most highly trained, earning them the title of most elite special forces in the U.S.
Russian FSB special forces Alpha Group and Vympel also have frogman units in their respective naval components….Russian commando frogmen.

Who would win in a war between Navy SEALs and Spetsnaz?
Spetsnaz at the end follows the same Russian doctrine: which is following orders. Seals are at the very extreme of US Armed Forces when it comes to hierarchies. And this is why Navy Seals would probably win against Spetsnaz (but probably SFOD-D = Delta Force would even do better).
Who is better – seal or Spetsnaz?
SEALs are better trained, better equipped and are in better shape and heal generally. But Spetsnaz are utterly ruthless and so brutally trained that they are hard as hell to get down and keep down.
How did the Spetsnaz kill the two soldiers?
Two Spetsnaz soldiers are chasing a navy seal on the platform outside. He placed a block of c4 under the platform to lure the soldiers into a trap. As they run past it, the seal presses the detonator killing both soldiers and sending the platform to the ground.
What is the difference between the SAS and Navy SEALs?
SAS does more hostage rescue/CT operations than the SEALs do unless you count a special SEALs department – DEVGRU (in public mostly known as SEAL Team 6). In order to thin out the herd, the SAS holds one of the most arduous and rigorous selection and training programs in the modern special operations community.
