context_section_description: The formerly known as Batalionul 60 Paraşutişti "Băneasa-Otopeni" (60th Paratroopers Battalion "Băneasa-Otopeni") is the main paratrooper unit of the Romanian Land Forces. It was originally formed in 1941. It was previously subordinated to the 1st Territorial Army Corps, and its headquarters are located in Buzău. The battalion was part of the 2nd Paratroopers Brigade (HQ Clinceni), which was disbanded in 2005 due to a reorganization program of the Romanian Land Forces, in order to reach NATO standards. Batalionul 60 Paraşutişti "Băneasa-Otopeni" was renamed Batalionul 620 Operaţii Speciale in 2011.
  Their first foreign operation came in 2009 in Kosovo, where an 86-man unit was deployed. The unit was equipped with URO VAMTAC vehicles.
