== MP40 ==
'''''Defiance''''' is a 2008 World War II film starring [[Daniel Craig]] and [[Liev Schreiber]] as brothers who decide to take the fight to the enemy during the German occupation of Poland while also protecting mass numbers of Jewish refugees. The film, based on a true story, was directed by [[Edward Zwick]] (''[[The Last Samurai]]'') and should be noted for the many World War II-era weapons seen in what appears to be near mint condition, which is correct considering the time frame (a rarity for the films).

The tank which he shoots at also has an MG34 which is later removed by Aron Bielski ([[George MacKay]]). Earlier, during the Red Army ambush, a German soldier shoots it from a truck.

The [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] is a German grenade, but it is only seen used by the Bielski partisans during the film.

Defiance is a 2008 World War II film starring Daniel Craig and Liev Schreiber as brothers who decide to take the fight to the enemy during the German occupation of Poland while also protecting mass numbers of Jewish refugees. The film, based on a true story, was directed by Edward Zwick (The Last Samurai) and should be noted for the many World War II-era weapons seen in what appears to be near mint condition, which is correct considering the time frame (a rarity for the films).


The following weapons were used in the film Defiance (2008):

Trivia

Panzerkampfwagen Ausf. J/1

A rather good mockup of a Panzerkampfwagen Ausf. J/1 was used at the end of the film. It is one of the two vehicles used in the film Enemy at the Gates. These were built using modified Swiss Panzer 61 tanks.
