"It Pays to be a Winner"

- U.S Navy SEALs 2nd motto

The U.S. Navy's Sea, Air and Land Teams (commonly known as Navy SEALs or SEALs) are the special operations branch of the United States Navy. They are mentioned in Call of Duty 4 and are seen during campaign in Modern Warfare 2. The Navy SEALs have also been seen during the Modern Warfare 3 reveal trailer. They are also a playable faction in Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
SEAL Team Six is mentioned in the level "Shock and Awe", where they assisted the NEST team in the failed attempt trying to disarm Al-Asad's nuclear device when Jackson and their team went to the LZ.

Campaign
The Navy SEALs make at least one appearance in the campaign of Modern Warfare 2, in the level "Of Their Own Accord", where they can be seen fast-roping down to the Dept of Commerce, and later taking off from the Department of Commerce in a Little Bird helicopter. During the attack on the Russian forces around the World War II Memorial, the helicopters carrying the SEALs are shot down. Members of this unit also appeared in the levels "The Only Easy Day...Was Yesterday" (the SEALs' motto) and "The Gulag" as a part of Task Force 141.

Multiplayer
In Modern Warfare 2, the Navy SEALs is also a playable faction in two multiplayer maps, Karachi and Sub Base. They are the least used faction in Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer. The only time the player hears a SEAL yell is when a grenade is nearby. Their character models wear both British and American flags, most likely because some of the SEAL models borrow from Task Force 141 deep-dive uniforms from the single-player campaign.They wear distinctive tactical black uniforms and are easy to spot on both maps. Because of their tactical black gear, single player missions involving in being behind enemy lines, and silent voices, they seem to have a black operations style in Modern Warfare 2. The announcer for the SEALs is Curtis Jackson, better known as "50 Cent", a popular American rapper/actor who did both multiplayer and singleplayer voice-overs for the game.

The player also plays as a Navy SEAL in three Special Ops missions: Breach & Clear, Wetwork, and Armor Piercing.

Trivia

 * Rapper/Actor Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson provides the voice acting for the Navy SEALs' multiplayer announcer (many fans believe its Griggs from Call of Duty 4 since it sounds similar to him).
 * Despite being an American special operations unit, in multiplayer some of the Navy SEALs wear British flag patches. This is due to the Navy SEALs character models being borrowed from Task Force 141 scuba divers in the missions "The Only Easy Day...Was Yesterday" & "The Gulag", who are of both American and British nationality.
 * The SEALs in multiplayer mode are relatively quiet, whispering lines in a deep voice, never shouting at all, unless they or any enemy players throw a grenade. Rarely in the mode, the character model for John "Soap" MacTavish can be seen as another player.
 * At times if the player or a teammate kill an enemy, the character will say "Tango down," in a voice that sounds like Sgt. Roebuck.
 * Though the Navy SEALs are playable in multiplayer, they are not controllable in the singleplayer campaign. They were originally going to be playable in the campaign, which inspired the mission The Only Easy Day... Was Yesterday.
 * The Navy SEALs multiplayer faction only appears in 2 maps, making it the least used faction in-game. There have been questions about why they are a faction in the multiplayer map, Karachi, and the reason being is because Karachi is a map based on Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare's single player mission, Shock and Awe, where SEAL Team Six is mentioned trying to disarm the nuclear bomb. It can be seen next to the SEALs spawn that they came to Karachi on zodiacs and a submarine and ported on the edge of the city. Evidence of Karachi being nuked can be seen around the map, as the map is very dilapidated, run-down, and dirty looking.
 * The full Navy SEALs victory music is also heard during the boat chase in "Endgame".
 * When the Ranger's meet the SEALs on top of the roof in "Of Their Own Accord", the SEALs are wearing the same type uniform as the Rangers.
 * The SEALs riot shield character model is the same as that of the Shadow Company's.
 * The SEALs seem to be the only faction to say, "We're done!" when an enemy nuke is activated.
 * The Navy SEALs multiplayer announcer appears to be the calmest from all factions.
 * When playing the German version, if the player picks up the bomb in any bomb-objective mode, the announcer will say it in English. This is possibly just a file mistake.
