Why for all the confusion between Osnaz and Spetsnaz? It is a very straightforward matter. --Numerousfalx 08:38, 9 Oct 2004 (UTC)

OSNAZ is the obsolete term

Latest comment: 11 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

"OSNAZ" term seems to be obsoleted in the 1970s or even in the 1960s by spetsnaz term. It is not (or almost not) used to refer to special forces of Russia. Please, adjust the article, Alpha Group, Vympel,etc. should not be here. Cmapm 00:59, 25 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

OSNAZ is still the official MVD initialism used by the MVD. As it is still officially used it will stay.--Degen Earthfast (talk) 18:43, 26 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
