Squad is a tactical first-person shooter video game. It is set to be self-published through Steam and is a spiritual successor to the multi-award winning Project Reality modification for Battlefield 2. The goal of Squad is to create a "tactical first person shooter built around teamwork and cooperation". The development was announced in October 2014 and it is currently in a pre-alpha state.
The following weapons appear in the video game Squad:
The Beretta M9A1 is the standard sidearm for the US Army.

The MP-443 Grach is the standard sidearm for the Russian Ground Forces.
Makarov PM
The Makarov PM is the standard sidearm for the Insurgents and Militia.
Walther P99
Some U.S. Army soldiers are seen with a Walther P99 holstered. Oddly, the frame uses the Walther P99 but it appears with a slide, hammer, safety decocker, muzzle, and a rear sight similar to the Beretta 92FS. The weapon is not usable.
Assault rifles
AKM
The AKM is usable by the Insurgent and Militia forces and comes in a single, bare, configuration.

The AK-74N is also usable by the Insurgents and Militiamen and can be identified thanks to the 1P78 scope that's always attached to it : the basic 74 isn't able to mount optics due to the lack of side rail.

The M4A1 carbine is the standard primary weapon for the US Army. The rifle is fitted with a railed handguard and comes in many configurations with different sighting systems (standard carry-handle iron sights, Aimpoint CompM4 red dot sight or ACOG optic sight) and rail attachments (vertical foregrip or M203 grenade launcher).
