In Modern Warfare 2, the player character Sgt. Gary "Roach" Sanderson is a member, with teammates "Ghost", Royce, "Meat" and leader Captain "Soap" MacTavish, all of them in the SAS and Delta Force. As stated in game previews, Task Force 141 will be deployed in the Tian Shan mountain range of Kazakhstan, a desert area in Afghanistan, a Russian prison and Rio De Janiero, Brazil.

Task Force 141 is based on such multinational special operations groups such as TF 121, TF 145, and TF 6-26, which in real life are mainly noted for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Trivia

 * During E3 '09, CEO of Infinity Ward Vince Zampella jokingly called TF 141 the "International Coalition of BadAsses" and in the June issue of GAMEINFORMER they referred to TF 141 as "Elite Badasses".
 * There appears to be another member of TF 141. He is seen in the trailer a couple of times, he is quite big and has a shaved head and he is American because just before the player goes up the zipline (in the trailer) he is seen with an American flag on his arm.
 * The unidentified member is probably the one next to Soap with Rojas in the Rio De Janiero video doing something with electrical cords, probably charging them.
 * The unknown American could be the US Army Ranger trainer for Roach. He also might be involved with the team in Rio De Janiero, Afghanistan and Russia.
