GDI Commando (Tiberium Wars)

The Commandos became a regular frontline GDI unit once again in the Third Tiberium War. Backed by 50 years of tradition, they are the results of a powerful training program, with a 22% fatality rate and 97% recruits never reaching the end of training. Lt. Fullerton, the commander of Stuttgart GDI forces was a Commando and was instrumental in retaking the city from the Scrin. Higgins and Conrad are commandos used extensively in GDI recruitment videos and posters.

The next generation Commandos wear full suits of heavy body armour with an integrated jump jet unit. They are also equipped with prototype high rate-of-fire assault railguns which can tear apart infantry and, if given enough time, light vehicles like the Attack Bike. And, like their predecessors, carry a large amount of det-packs (basing on an exotic chemical) for building demolition. One of their key abilities, apart from the ability to remain unseen, is destroying a Nod Avatar War Mech, by jumping on it and planting explosives directly on the pilot's virtual sensory pod. To maintain fitness GDI commandoes usually do one handed push ups when idle.
