The mine Bazda steps on in the forest which is implied to be a pressure release detonated device appears to be a Yugoslavian [[PROM-1 anti-personnel mine]], with the distinctive pronged tilt trigger of that weapon. If so, this is an error; the PROM-1's detonator is triggered by tilting the prongs, and the mine's bounding charge explodes around one second after the striker is released.

Nice, but where's the trigger?

This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it.

The following weapons were used in the movie Behind Enemy Lines:

Error creating thumbnail: File missing


Beretta 92SB

Both Lt. Jeremy Stackhouse (Gabriel Macht) and Lt. Chris Burnett (Owen Wilson) have Beretta 92SB handguns as their sidearms. When the two of them first crash land in Bosnia after their F/A-18F Super Hornet is shot down, Stackhouse is discovered by the Serbs. They take his weapon and question him. After that, a Serb sniper named Sasha (Vladimir Mashkov) uses the pilot's own weapon to execute him, and then uses it to shoot at Burnett when he is discovered. Burnett later uses his Beretta 92SB to shoot and injure Sasha near the end of the film. This model of the Beretta won the airforce trials and is not accurately portayed as used in the film due to lt. Burnett being a navy pilot wich would be issued the 92FS(M9). Note how it has a rounded trigger guard front. The later models such as the 92F and 92FS would incorporate the curved trigger guard later on. The use of this handgun also would seem to depict that this film is set around the same time as USAF Captain Scott O'Grady crashed in Bosnia(1995), in which this film is loosely based.

CZ 75B

The Serbians use CZ 75B handguns as their sidearms. It is most notably seen when Sasha (Vladimir Mashkov) uses his to fire at Burnett (Owen Wilson) when he is first discovered by the Serbs. He also uses it later on to detonate an unexploded landmine. Burnett also takes this gun from Sasha to protect himself while getting the pictures from the ejeced seat.

Sniper Rifle

At the end of the film when Burnett (Owen Wilson) is being rescued by the U.S Marines, A Serb sniper with a heavily Camouflaged Sniper rifle attempts to shoot Burnett while he's running back to the helicopters, but before he can fire, he is taken out by a Marine sniper.

It can't be a mosin-nagant. When he is shot and falls back, the magazine well is shown to be flat, not extended and curved.

The rifle this soldier is using is a CZ 700 or 750. The movie was made in Czech Republic (or Slovakia) and they used the weapons that are in that country, except for a few possibly Yugo AK's for the Serbs.

AK-47

While hunting for Burnett, at least one Serbian soldier can be seen carrying a genuine AK-47 rifle. Several can also be seen in the opening scene when the Serbian solders were planting trees on the graves.

Zastava M70AB2

During flashbacks to the ethnic cleansing scene that took place at the beginning of the film, several Serbian soldiers can be seen using Zastava M70AB2 assault rifles to slaughter civilians that would fill the mass grave Burnett and Stackhouse are later shot down for discovering. The M70 is the Serbian AKM copy and differs primarily in that it has a folding sight for launching grenades in front of the gas tube, which is clearly visible in the screencap below. The B1 is fixed stock and the B2 is folding stock.

This scenes from the movie Savior

AKM

Many of the Croatian soldiers can be seen with AKM rifles throughout the film. A couple are also seen being carried by civilians Burnett encounters, including a young man who accompanies Burnett in his attempt to reach the extraction point. Burnett also comandeers one of these weapons from a dead Serbian soldier and uses it for most of the remainder of the film.

Sa vz 58

Along with the AKM, many of the Serbian soldiers can also be seen carrying Sa vz 58 rifles, most notably in the scene where Burnett is navagating the minefield. A pair of Serbian soldiers brandishing Sa vz 58 rifles spot him and give chase, unaware of the minefield until they trigger it, killing them and destroying their rifles.

AKMSU

Not an m40. Just a typical Remington PSS with a leupold on top. More than likely their precision weapon system package.

Browning M2HB Heavy Machine Gun

In the scene where Stackhouse is captured, some of the Serbian vehicles arriving on the scene can be seen with American-made Browning M2HB heavy machine guns mounted on them.

M16A2

In several scenes, U.S. Marines can be seen armed with M16A2 assault rifles, most notably at the climax of the film, when Marine forces rescue Burnett (Owen Wilson).

Barrel's too short, plus it has an A1-style rear sight. It's more likely a Colt Model 653 or 654 (CAR-15) carbine.

PROM-1 bounding antipersonnel mine

The mine Bazda steps on in the forest which is implied to be a pressure release detonated device appears to be a Yugoslavian PROM-1 anti-personnel mine, with the distinctive pronged tilt trigger of that weapon. If so, this is an error; the PROM-1's detonator is triggered by tilting the prongs, and the mine's bounding charge explodes around one second after the striker is released. The minefield Burnett is navagating when the Serbs chasing him set it off is comprised of numerous PROM-1 mines with tripwires crisscrossing the field. The detonation of the mines is falsely shown to be a directional blast, more akin to that of the American M18A1 Claymore.
