The SS-Jagdverband Südwest was formed from the Brandenburg unit Streifkorps Südfrankreich when it was transferred to the Waffen-SS in September 1944.
It fought the Italian partisans along the French-Italian border until January 1945 when it launched long-range patrols behind the lines of the US 7th Army. It withdrew towards Austria and was planned to join the other Jagdverbände in Linz, but it is unkown if it suceeded.
