Default What's the most common entry method for SWAT and special forces

Really random question after watching clips from the siege in Mumbai, and The Professional. What sort of entry/search formations are most commonly used by SWAT and National Guard? If someone was holding up inside a building, how would the opposing team enter and try to neutralize the situation?

You could set some killer traps if you knew how the enemy would enter and fight.

Well if there good you wont hear them coming until its too late. If its loud it wont matter your gonna die or go to jail for a long time so you might as well shoot back at them or pull shit and point it at yourself and walk out slowly before they kill you and do yourself.

What ever the situation calls for.

As you can see there are a shitload of methods.

Im generally down for the most destructive one.

JDAM is a very effective (and cool to watch) way to clear a building(s)

It's called dynamic entry for a reason.
