More likely it will be nine platoons of para-military

I have the feeling many of the swat types are comfortable when they have superior numbers, personal protection and fire power, but wouldn't be so gung ho with battle after battle reducing their numbers.

And there is a huge difference between SWAT operations and light infantry tactics. SWAT is used to making a perimeter and using 20 to 1 odds on a small scale. Having to protect a perimeter is a lot harder.
