What martial arts do they teach to police or soldiers?

I know it%26#039;s different everywhere in the world so I %26#039;m only asking about in the U.S.


What m.a. systems do they teach to law enforcements or the marines or navy seals??


Don%26#039;t tell me weapons, i%26#039;m asking about martial arts.


Since they are not dealing with sport competitions but with %26quot;Real life%26quot; situations...people always say how things are entirely different when happening in real life...





ok i%26#039;m sure the police and soldiers are the forefront people to taste real life scenarios on a daily basis.|||Depends on the agency and the particular instructors that a police department or military base assigns from within its ranks or hires from the private sector.





Most of the styles I%26#039;ve seen highlighted are Jujitsu, Aikido, some forms of karate or %26quot;kung fu%26quot;, Krav Maga, and military close quarter combat techniques. In some cases, Filipino martial arts (escrima, arnis, or kali) are taught for the defending against weapons are also taught by some agencies.|||I believe Ken Shamrock was working with the Marines to develop a system of techniques that could be done while in gear. I saw an article about John Pelligrini conducting a Hapkido seminar to our troops over seas also. But I don%26#039;t know of an actual art being taught.|||akito|||They can learn anything they want; there%26#039;s no %26quot;official%26quot; discipline. They are taught certain techniques for subduing perps and of course defending themselves.|||i think Police|||That still depends on both which branch of the armed forces you mean and the instructor. Usually it%26#039;s a hybrid. I have a relative and a good friend who both were in the Army and a relative who was in the Airforce and they all got different hand-to-hand training.





First off the styles covered appear to be a mix of Krav Maga, Jeet Kun Do, Ninjitsu, Brazilian Ju Jitsu and Kempo Karate. In the army, the grunts seem to learn Karate and Krav Maga, but it varies by instructor. the officers appear to learn a lot more including joint locks from BJJ, take-downs from JKD and everyday weapons and some dirty tricks from Ninjitsu on top of what the grunts learn. in the Airforce they seem to focus on BJJ but they get some Karate in there as well.





Again it may depend on the instructor, this is from a fairly limited number of examples I know of. Sadly I only know one front line soldier in the Army and only one officer, I wish I knew one more of either ne to compare and see if they got the same training. I%26#039;d also like to compare it with someone in the Rangers or Seals.|||Anything they decide would be good. They have pick some really dumb stuff in past such as SCARS which is a laughstock of martial arts community.





So don%26#039;t be too quick to assume they%26#039;re the best hands to hands fighter in the world.





Less than 1% soldiers ever fought hands to hands. They usually have a team to back them up with a rifle, firearms, etc... If those aren%26#039;t available, they would use something such as knife, folding shovel, homemade mace, stick, etc...





Sorry to bust your bubble, but once soldiers are on battlefield, they totally wonder why the hell they fantasies about being send on a sucidial mission or fight against whole battalion armed with only a knife. They will do anything to survive even if it make them look like a coward or fool.|||The military in general hires special contractors who are long time veterans of martial arts, and are experts in that field.|||its not a one style of m.a. its hand to hand combat. all m.a. has some it is a mix of all
