Members are professional soldiers and are recruited through the Bangladesh Navy. The SWADS is organized, trained and equipped along the lines of SEAL/UDT teams of the United States Navy SEALs and the Republic of Korea Navy UDT/SEAL.[1]{{self published inline|date=December 2018}} As of 2014, SWADS is believed to number a few hundred strong,[2] and is based is in the southern port city of Chittagong.[3] Its base is formally known as "Nirvik".[4] HistoryAlthough Bangladeshi Navy personnel were trained on American soil since the 1970s, United States Navy instructors were instrumental in creating SWADS in late 2008.[5] SWADS was formally created in 2009 with 150 commandos and 200 divers recruited.[4] US Ambassador to Bangladesh Dan Mozena provided assistance in the creation of the unit.[4] The unit's lineage is traced back to the Nau Commandos during the country's Liberation War against Pakistan.[6][7] SWADS operators have participated alongside American Navy SEALs in Joint Combined Training Exchange programs under the Tiger Shark exercises.[6] SelectionSWADS operatives are recruited from the Navy and are trained in Bangladesh and abroad. They are trained by various navy special forces instructors from South Korea, Turkey and the United States. The average drop rate is 95%.
