The Special Water Warfare Group (Quenminese: Nhóm tác Chiến dưới Nước Đặc biệt), colloquially known by its shorthand name Nước Đặc, is the special warfare division of the Royal and Imperial Quenminese Oceanic Force. The group conducts small-unit unconventional warfare in environments such as maritime, jungle, forest, urban, mountainous, and arctic, alongside deep reconaissance, capturing high-value targets, and hostage rescue.
