Mission Brief
SSO — Russia's Joint Special Operations Command, operators of the 'little green men'.
Russia's Special Operations Forces (Sily spetsialnykh operatsiy — SSO) were established in 2013 as Russia's version of U.S. SOCOM, creating a dedicated special operations command capable of planning and executing complex joint operations. The SSO first came to global attention in Crimea in 2014, when operators appeared without national insignia — the famous 'little green men' — to secure key facilities before the formal annexation.
SSO operators subsequently deployed to Syria in 2015, conducting direct action and advisory missions alongside Syrian government forces in operations against ISIS and opposition groups. The unit represents the cutting edge of Russian special operations capability — equipped with Russia's latest weapons and communications technology including the AK-12 assault rifle, the next generation of the Kalashnikov family.
For Russian special operations enthusiasts and modern warfare collectors aged 12 and up.
Russia's elite SOF in full kit — 5 SSO operator figures.
