I could see the Norwegian and Swedish SoF being very good at winter and mountain ops as well as LRRP due to their terrain; I suppose Canadian JTF2 would potentially have exactly the same skillset too as Canada is very similar (if a little bigger! ;))
Most if not all those units you mentioned are considered 'Tier 1', especially GROM and JTF2 who functioned within TF 11, 121 and others operating in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The Australian SASR desperately wants to be Tier 1 but currently lacks the funding (especially in terms of aviation and UAV support) and both the government and the public not wanting to create a 'larger footprint'.
Here's a good article if anyone's interested
SAS push to fight with elite US forces
Oliver, you did a bang up job describing the tier system thank you
Also, here's an interesting link to the SOCOM Special Operations Year in Review
