SSW is definitely focused on that. Whether they conduct joint training with SSG(A) in this regard is a good question. During the fighting in FATA, SSW elements were involved in helping PAF conduct air strikes.

PAF, RSAF and USAF conclude multinational air exercise Aces Meet 2021-1​

The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) has successfully completed the multinational air exercise Aces Meet 2021-1 at PAF base Mushaf.
  • The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) has successfully completed the multinational air exercise Aces Meet 2021-1 at PAF base Mushaf.
The two-week long exercise saw active participation from the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF) and the United States Air Force (USAF).
Addressing the participants involved in the exercise, PAF Base Mushaf air commodore Ali Naeem Zahoor said the exercise provided an opportunity to learn via ‘mutual sharing of experiences’.

ACES MEET 2021-1 included multiple missions across the airpower spectrum and offered near-realistic and role-oriented training to participating members even during the challenging situations due to Covid-19 pandemic.
Members of PAK, RSAF and USAF special forces performed several Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) missions during the exercise.

According to a statement posted on Radio Pakistan, Bahrain, Egypt and Jordan air forces acted as observers for the drill.
The exercise included the employment of fighter jets from the air forces of Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, as well as airborne early warning and control aircraft and military satellites.
The deployed assets helped improve coordination and harmony between the ground elements and air component.

Zahoor was quoted by media sources as saying: “PAF is happy to share its experiences and expertise in the field of counter-terrorism operations with RSAF & USAF.
“With the successful and meaningful conduct of exercise, we have consolidated our resolve, that we stand by each other as allies and friends.”

Thanks for the reply however I knew SSW was well-rehearsed in terms of JTAC operations but I was thinking if the training could be given to let's say a commando platoon, not always we can have SSW availability in all sectors when war begins. Broader distribution might be good perhaps but who knows.

The Indians are giving it a good overview.

Moreover, SSW are also trained in Loadmaster and Pathfinder operations to set up and operate drop zones, pickup zones, and helicopter landing sites for airborne operations. There is a special Pathfinder course done at at their base with a special insignia for that.
