The Special Operations Groups (Spanish: Grupos de Operaciones Especiales, GOE) are the special operations forces of the Spanish Army.
These units should not be confused with the similar-sounding Grupo Especial de Operaciones (GEO) and Grupos Operativos Especiales de Seguridad (GOES), two police forces, or the Spanish Navy's Unidad de Operaciones Especiales (UOE).
The three Special Operations Groups are subordinated to the Special Operations Command.
The Special Operations Groups were Ranger type units that specialized in counter-insurgency and guerrilla warfare tactics.
