Seven men are facing firearms and cocaine supply charges after being arrested during raids by NSW counter terrorism police.

NSW Joint Counter Terrorism Team officers arrested and charged the men after executing 11 search warrants on December 15.

Police said more than a year of investigations had uncovered a criminal network involved in the illicit supply of cocaine and firearms across Sydney.

Police will address the media about the arrests on Wednesday.
