LAPD SWAT is recognized as the first specialized tactical organization in modern law enforcement—a legacy every team member understands, honors, and respects. Our team ethos guides each individual operation and contributes directly to its success. Ultimately, the effectiveness of our team is built on the many layers of support we receive. We remain fully aware of—and deeply grateful for—all those who continue to stand behind our mission.
A thank you to our filmmakers for the making of this video. Your commitment over the past 6 months has been absolutely incredible.

The Twitter bird went out with a bang.
We teamed up with @ditchitapp to blow it up in the Nevada desert, and yes, it was just as wild as it sounds.
With 4 drone pilots, 5 camera ops, 2 Freefly Ember slow-mo rigs, and a killer crew, we pulled off this stunt safely and in style.
Massive thanks to everyone who made this happen, and to @hugobordes for the awesome BTS shots.
The explosion frames at the end are screen frames straight from 5K & 6K video. 🔥
