Sgt. Stubby: An American Hero is a 2018 animated feature set during World War I centered on the real-life exploits of the titular Sergeant Stubby, the war's most highly decorated service animal. It features the voice talents of Logan Lerman, Helena Bonham Carter, and Gérard Depardieu.
The following weapons were used in the animated film Sgt. Stubby: An American Hero:
Rifles
M1903A3 Springfield
U.S. doughboys are all seen armed with anachronistic M1903A3 Springfield rifles throughout the film, as opposed to the period-appropriate original M1903. Some French soldiers in the trenches of the Chemin des Dames are also seen carrying these rifles.
Lebel Model 1886
Most French troops in the film are seen carrying Lebel Model 1886 rifles throughout the movie, most notably by Gaston Baptiste (Gérard Depardieu).
Mauser Gewehr 1898
German soldiers are all armed with Mauser Gewehr 1898 rifles.
Grenades
Model 17 Stielhandgranate
German and French soldiers are both seen using Model 17 Stielhandgranates. At one point in the film Stubby saves several soldiers by grabbing a thrown Model 17 in his mouth and running away with it, injuring himself in the process when the grenade explodes.
Rifle mounted smoke grenade
At one point in the film, a trio of Springfield rifles are seen launching smoke grenades.
Other/Trivia
10.5 cm leFH 16
The Germans use what seem to be 10.5 cm leFH 16 field howitzers to propagate a mustard gas attack.
USS Minnesota
Various cannons and naval guns are seen on board the USS Minnesota including 8"/45 caliber guns, 7"/44 caliber guns and 8"/35 caliber gun (and a few others). The same loadout appears on a second ship at the end of the film as well, although this is likely the same 3D model asset as the USS Minnesota. It can be noted that the USS Minnesota is depicted as carrying American troops all the way to Europe, despite the fact that in reality it was damaged on the voyage and had to return back to the states where it was left to be repaired until the end of the war.
Renault FT
Renault FT tanks are seen near the end of the film, and aid Allied troops in a push against the German trenches. They are notably under the command of George S. Patton in the film. These tanks are equipped with Hotchkiss M1914 machine guns.
Canon de 120 mm L modèle 1878
A number of French Canon de 120 mm L modèle 1878s are seen along the docks of where the USS Minnesota is docked near early in the movie, with a few seen again when the return ship docks.
