Unless you're describing hitting a mosquito, SWAT is an acronym and should be spelled in all capital letters.

It stands for Special Weapons And Tactics and is a special unit in larger American police departments created in the 1960s to deal with exceptional situations that are beyond the capabilities of most uniform officers in a way that minimizes the number of killed or injured.

SWAT teams are made up an elite group of uniformed police who have undergone special training.
