Alfa: Antiterror is a 2005 turn-based/real-time hybrid strategy game, developed by MiST Land South, (who later became GFI Russia, most notable for developing Hired Guns: The Jagged Edge, which was originally supposed to be Jagged Alliance 3D, the German box art for Alfa even boasts how it's from the developers of Jagged Alliance 3D), with some members of that team eventually forming CatsWhoPlay.
The player mainly assumes the role of a Russian counter-terror unit Alpha Group but multiplayer/single missions allow the player to play as several other military groups, such as GSG-9.
The game's units can be chosen to take an "Assaulter", "Sniper" or "Grenadier" specialization when starting a mission, essentially selecting a set of weapons (only Snipers can take sniper rifles, Assaulters have a large selection of general weaponry and only Grenadiers get grenade launchers/the more expensive anti-tank launchers, though Assaulters can take disposable anti-tank launchers).
Submachine guns/carbines are generally available as both primary weapons for Assaulters and Grenadiers and secondary weapons for Snipers, as a primary weapon they can have more ammo taken, are used with stocks added/extended and use a suppressor generally, while they are used with no stock/stock folded and less overall ammo as secondary weapons.
For gameplay, the player issues a series of orders to their soldiers with time paused, then initiates a turn, with all of the player's orders being carried out for 20 seconds, after these 20 seconds, the game pauses again and the player can issue new orders.
An standalone expansion was later released: Alfa: Antiterror: Men's Work. This expansion was never translated for other languages but apparently added new equipment to the game.
Plenty of the weapons included in this game would be reused in Jagged Edge.
The following weapons appear in the video game Alfa: Antiterror:
Pistols
Beretta 92FS
The Beretta 92FS is available in-game.
FN Five-seveN
TheFN Five-seveN appears as one of the pistols.
Heckler & Koch USP
The Heckler & Koch USP appears can be equipped with a suppressor.
Makarov PM
Appears in-game as the Russian pistol that costs zero Command Points to equip. Its role is taken by the Colt 1911 for Western factions and in multiplayer. The Makarov PM and PMM share both models and icon, the biggest difference is the magazine sizes, with the PM holding eight. The icon depicts a PM with wooden grips while the in-game model appears with black grips.
Makarov PMM
The Makarov PMM with a 12-round magazine appears as one of the pistols.
PSS
The PSS appears as a usable pistol.
OTs-23 Drotik
The OTs-23 Drotik appears as the "OZ-23 'Drotik'" and is one of the usable pistols.
OTs-27 "Berdysh"
The OTs-27 "Berdysh" appears as the "OZ-27 'Berdysh'".
Smith & Wesson 5904
A handgun referred to as the "S&W 5906" is usable despite the fact that the pistol has a black finish and the 5906 has a stainless steel frame. The in-game handgun has a greater resemblance to the Smith & Wesson 5904 because of this.
Serdyukov SPS
The Serdyukov SPS appears in-game.
Stechkin APS
The Stechkin APS appears as an available sidearm.
Submachine Guns
AEK-919K Kashtan
The AEK-919K Kashtan is one of the submachine guns available, it is used by Assaulters as a primary weapon while Snipers can carry it as their secondary weapon.
PP-19 Bizon-2
The PP-19 Bizon-2 appears as one of the available submachine guns.
Calico M950
The Calico M950 appears as one of the available weapons.
Calico M960
The Calico M960 appears, incorrectly classified as an assault rifle. In the Scenario Mission "Sad Buddha" set in Afghanistan, this Calico is portrayed as the default "assault rifle" of Delta Force.

Heckler & Koch UMP
The Heckler & Koch UMP is one of the submachine guns present.
Assault Rifles
AEK-971
The AEK-971 appears as a primary weapon.
AEK-973
The AEK-973 appears in-game
AK-102
The AK-102 appears as one of the available rifles, it can be equipped with a scope or a suppressor and scope combo. Oddly, a version with just a suppressor is unavailable.
AK-105
The AK-105 appears as the cheapest assault rifle, requiring the least amount of Command Points to equip. It has inferior range and stopping power compared to the rest of the AK family. It can be equipped with a suppressor and/or scope.
AK-74
The AK-74 appears in-game, with both a wooden furniture version and a synthetic AK-74M version.
AK-74M
The AK-74M is one of the available rifles.
AKS-74U
The AKS-74U appears as an available carbine, it is equipped with a suppressor for Assaulters and the stock is removed for Snipers like with the submachine guns. It is called "AKC-74U" in-game.
AKM
The AKM appears as one of the usable rifles.
AN-94
The AN-94 appears as one of the available assault rifles, it is called the "AH-94" in the equipment menu but properly listed as the AN-94 in its description.
M4A1
The M4A1 is available as the "Colt M4A1 Commando". It can be equipped with a grenade launcher, scope or suppressor.
Enfield L85A1
The L85A1 appears as the "Enfield L85A".
FAMAS
A FAMAS rifle appears as the "FAMAS", it appears to be a different FAMAS in-game and in the inventory menu.
FN FAL
The FN FAL is one of the available rifles, while it appears as a proper FN FAL in the icon, the actual in-game model appears to be an IMI Galil ARM, possibly due to re-texturing one of the AK rifles.
FN FNC
The FN FNC is one of the available rifles. It can be equipped with an M203 or scope, which are exclusive attachments for this rifle.
Groza Hybrid
A fictional hybrid OTs-14 Groza appears as one of the rifles, it is available either with a grenade launcher or a scope or suppressor that can also be taken together. This Groza doesn't match either version, it uses 7.62mm ammo like the OTs-14-1A version yet loads from 10-20 round magazines like the 9x39mm OTs-14-4A version.
Heckler & Koch HK53
The Heckler & Koch HK53 appears in-game.
SR-3 Vikhr
The SR-3 Vikhr appears as one of the secondaries for snipers.
Steyr AUG
The Steyr AUG appears as one of the primary weapons.
Machine Guns
RPK
The RPK appears as one of the LMGs available.
RPK-74
The RPK-74 is an available LMG.

The PKM appears as one of the LMGs in-game. The Pecheneg version is also present, however it shares both icon and model with the PKM.
Sniper Rifles
Enfield Enforcer
The Enfield Enforcer is a usable weapon by Snipers.
TKB-0145K
The TKB-0145K experimental sniper rifle appears as one of the available rifles.
OSV-96

SVD Dragunov
The SVD Dragunov appears as one of the Sniper Rifles.
Accuracy International Arctic Warfare Magnum
The Accuracy International Arctic Warfare Magnum appears as the "AW Super Magnum"
VSK-94
The VSK-94 appears as one of the available sniper rifles.
Launchers
GM-94
The GM-94 grenade launcher appears as one of the game's launchers. Curiously, while its actual in-game model appears faithful to the real deal, the weapon's inventory icon has the thumbhole stock of a VSK-94.
Heckler & Koch HK69A1
The HK69A1 appears, firing explosive grenades.
RPG-16
The RPG-16 appears in-game, in possibly its only video game appearance. Sadly, while it has a unique icon, in-game it shares its model with the RPG-7.
RPG-18
The RPG-18 appears as the default launcher for Assaulters/Grenadiers.
Grenades
RGN Fragmentation Hand Grenade
The RGN hand grenade appears as the Russian grenade with a "Damage Range" as the game calls it of 10 meters.
RGO fragmentation grenade
The RGO appears with a "Damage Range" of 100 meters due to its shrapnel. It shares a model and icon with the RGN and is notably not available in PvP Modes, likely due to its massive blast radius.
RGD-5 Frag Grenade
The RGD-5 appears with a 25 meter "Damage Range".
DM51 hand grenade
The DM51 hand grenade appears as a usable grenade, it is used by Western factions such as Delta Force as well as enemies.

The M67 hand grenade appears as the "Western" grenade with 10 meter "Damage Range".
L2A2 Hand Grenade
The L2A2 hand grenade is available to Western Factions.
LU 213 Hand Grenade
The LU 213, a precursor to the LU 216 hand grenade is one of the available grenades.
Other
Mortar
An icon of a mortar (presumably a depiction of the 2B14 Podnos Mortar but the bipod is wrong) is shown for "Fire Support" markers, the player must move a radio man with a mortar icon to these spots and mortar fire will be automatically fired at a different marker showing an explosion with the same number. The Mortar takes 60 seconds before it can fire again.
A similar mechanic is used for friendly armored vehicles such as BMPs, they cannot be directly controlled but a radio man can move to marked locations to radio them.
