The vehicle doesn't seem to have a large turret so it is possibly tracked APC, not a tank.

Is it REALLY a MAT-49?
Just by looking at the barrel, the magazine well, and the bolt, this doesn't look like a MAT-49 at all... -SeptemberJack (talk) 19:47, 15 August 2017 (EDT)
- As far, as I know, MAT49 is the only SMG with a foldin magazine. Pyramid Silent (talk) 23:44, 15 August 2017 (EDT)
- It's not the only one. FNA-B 43, for example, and some others. But anyway the screen gun has nothing in common with MAT-49, different barrel, different receiver, different attaching of sling. I'll try to make some research. Greg-Z (talk) 03:43, 16 August 2017 (EDT)
- I think that it can be Swiss SIG MP-310 with some muzzle extention (possibly blank firing adapter). Compare the general shape, the position of the sight, the magazine housing lock button (seen on third screenshot) and the position of the pistol grip slightly behind the back of the receiver. Greg-Z (talk) 04:04, 16 August 2017 (EDT) Note: MP-310 seems to be better guess than MP-48, the first version of this gun, as MP-48 had wooden furniture that would be seen on screen.

PPS-43
The SMG looks similar to PPS-43 but it seem to have the pistol grip and the magazine well very close to each other, more close than on PPS. It is just a visual effect? Maybe we can see this SMG on another angle? Greg-Z (talk) 03:43, 16 August 2017 (EDT)
M16
M16s are most likely Philippine-made Elisco M16A1s. Greg-Z (talk) 03:43, 16 August 2017 (EDT)
Mortar
2B14 Podnos Mortar cannot appear in 1985 Philippines-filmed movie. This must be some old 81mm mortar of US origin, issued to Philippines army. Greg-Z (talk) 00:12, 16 August 2017 (EDT) M1 Mortar, I guess. Greg-Z (talk) 03:43, 16 August 2017 (EDT)
Artillery
Field cannons are 105 mm M2A1 (redesignating M101A1) howitzers. Heavy cannons on second and third screenshots need more research, but I think that these are mockups, resembling WW1 era siege mortars. Greg-Z (talk) 03:43, 16 August 2017 (EDT)
Armor
The vehicle doesn't seem to have a large turret so it is possibly tracked APC, not a tank. Greg-Z (talk) 03:43, 16 August 2017 (EDT)
