Suheil al-Hassan }} Tiger Forces or Quwwat Al-Nimr ({{lang-ar|قوات النمر}}) is an elite formation (special forces unit) of the Syrian Arab Army which functions primarily as an offensive unit in the Syrian Civil War. It has been described as a "hot commodity for any government offensive", but their relatively small numbers make it difficult to deploy them to multiple fronts at once.[3] Despite officially being called a division,[4] it is estimated that the actual size of the Tiger Forces is closer to a battalion.[1] HistoryAfter successful operations in Latakia and Hama, Colonel Suheil al-Hassan was tasked a special project by the Syrian Armed Forces Central Command in the fall of 2013—to train and lead a Special Forces unit that would work primarily as an offensive unit. Colonel Hassan handpicked many of the soldiers that would later form the Tiger Forces.[5] On 25 December 2015, Suheil al-Hassan was promoted to major general after refusing to be brigadier general last year.[6] He played a key role in commanding Syrian troops during 2016 Aleppo campaign. Tiger Forces were tasked two times to cut the key supply lines to rebel-held Aleppo. Since the Russian intervention, they have provided the Tiger Forces with infantry equipment; including the AK-74M and 1P87 collimator sights.[1] The Tiger Forces were one of few in the Syrian Army to first deploy Russian T-90 tanks,[7] others being the 4th Armoured Division and Desert Hawks Brigade.[8][9] In the aftermath of the December 2015 Aleppo Offensive, Tiger Forces deployed a Russian-supplied Rys LMV.[1] It was seen after defeating ISIS in the village of ‘Ayn Al-Hanish, Deir Hafer Plains.[10] The most famous and effective tactic of the Tiger Forces is probing the enemy from multiple axes to find a weak spot, then sending a large mechanized force to that area to capture many villages at once.[11] According to Gregory Waters, they ultimately report to Major General Jamil Hassan, the director of the country’s Air Force Intelligence Directorate.[15] In September/October 2018, reports indicated that between 6500 and 8000 Tiger Forces members will be demobilized.[12][13] SubunitsThe Tiger Forces have multiple special operations "Groups/Regiments" (halfway between a company and a battalion) Cheetah Forces[14] or Qawat al-Fahoud ({{lang|ar|قوات الفهود}})[15] – The current commander is Colonel Shadi Isma’el and the deputy commander is Colonel Lu’ayy Sleitan.[14] Subunits of the Cheetah Forces include Team 3 and Team 6. Team 6 were the first soldiers that ended the 35-month long Siege of Kuweires Military Airbase,[16][17] while Team 3 along with the Desert Hawks Brigade completed the East Aleppo ISIS encirclement.[18]Panther Forces[19] – According to Leith Fadel in 2016, the commander was Colonel Ali Shaheen,[20] and they were involved in the Palmyra offensive (March 2016), where they were redeployed to another front after it was over.[19][20] According to Waters, the "Panther Groups" are actually the Cheetahs, and are not commanded by Ali Shaheen, who instead commands the Leouth Groups.[21]Later reports seem to suggest an altered internal structure, stating that the unit consists of the following subunits:[22][23]
The Tiger Forces consisted of as many as 24 subgroups of varying size. Tiger Forces groups/subunits were founded by prominent individuals who often also served as commanders of a particular group (the group often bearing the name of the individual who founded and/or commanded the group).[31] See also
