| '''Ultimate Force''' was a British Television show that ran from 2002-2006. It centered around 'Red Troop', a crack SAS (Special Air Service) unit that was given the task of defending Britain from Terrorist threats in the Post 9/11 World. One of the creators was former SAS soldier Chris Ryan, and as such, has many elements of the real world SAS within the show. One criticism was the show's deference to "political correctness" when it had a female character joining the frontline SAS unit and engaging in front line combat, which would never happen in real life (even in today's mixed gender armed services).

| ==SIG-Sauer P226==
| |
| The [[Sig Sauer P220 pistol series#SIG P226|SIG-Sauer P226]] is the preferred sidearm of Red Troop and is used throughout the series. It is seen most prominently in Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie" in the hands of Sgt. Henno Garvie ([[Ross Kemp]]), who uses his P226 to take down several [[AK-47|Kalashnikov]]-toting IRA terrorists during an ambush.

| |
| In some episodes, the smaller [[Sig Sauer P220 pistol series#SIG P228|SIG-Sauer P228]] also makes appearances in the hands of Red Troop, most notably in Episode 2.2, "Mad Dogs", when Henno, Jamie, and Ricky are all seen firing them on the range.

| |
| In Episodes 2.1 and 2.3, Jamie is seen using the [[Sig Sauer P220 pistol series#SIG P225|SIG-Sauer P225]] as his sidearm, even though this pistol is a dated design with a smaller magazine capacity than the P226s and P228s which Red Troop usually uses on the show.

| In Episode 1.2, "Just A Target", one of the anti-globalization terrorists uses what appears to be a very early [[Beretta 92 pistol series|Beretta 92]], as referenced by the fact that it has a rounded trigger guard and a frame-mounted safety on one side only. It may also be a very early [[Taurus PT92]], which was identical to the original Beretta 92.

| |
| In Episode 3.2, "Never Go Back", the leader of the Zimbabwean "Fire Brigade" carries a Bruni Automatic 8mm CAL pistol (which is a theatrical blank firing only replica gun). The character may carry a real M1911 in other shots, but in this particular shot, he is aiming it at a child actor, so the blocked barreled replica M1911 is used.

| |
| | |
| ==Heckler & Koch MP5A3==
| |
| The standard-issue weapons for the SAS unit Red Troop in the TV show are [[Heckler & Koch MP5#Heckler & Koch MP5A3|Heckler & Koch MP5A3]] submachine guns, which are always seen with Surefire fore ends and tactical flashlights as well as the SEF-style lower receiver. These weapons are typically used in Red Troop's domestic hostage rescue missions.
| |
| | |
| The other SAS unit, Blue Troop, also use identical weapons, as do many Metropolitan Police SO19 (now CO19) officers throughout the show.

| |
| | |
| ==Heckler & Koch MP5SD3==
| |
| Red Troop also makes use of the suppressed [[MP5# Heckler & Koch MP5SD|Heckler & Koch MP5SD3]] on some missions where maintaining a low profile is preferable in order to avoid alerting terrorists to their presence. These weapons are featured most prominently in Episode 2.5, "What in the Name of God" when Red Troop invades the stronghold of a Christian cult terrorist group to capture their leader.

| |
| [[Heckler & Koch MP5#Heckler & Koch MP5K|Heckler & Koch MP5K]] machine pistols appear in some episodes, such as Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie", where Captain Caroline Walsh ([[Alex Reid]]) uses one to fire back at IRA terrorists during the ambush. The version seen in the show is always the "KA1" variation, a version designed for concealed carry (it lacks the H&K diopter sights in order to avoid getting snagged on clothing when being drawn quickly from beneath a jacket).

| |
| For overseas missions where hostages and CQB are not important considerations, Red Troop uses several models in the [[M16 rifle series]], ranging from the very earliest M16 (SP1) to the M16A2, though in nearly all cases, their rifles seem to be fitted with the handguards of M16A2s. They also use [[Cobray 37mm Launcher]]s (to impersonate the [[M203 Grenade Launcher|M203]]) quite frequently.
| |

| Red Troop also uses [[M16 rifle series#|CAR-15/M16 carbine]] variations on its overseas missions which, like the full-size M16s they are also seen using, often have fake [[M203 grenade launcher]]s mounted under the barrels.

| Throughout Season 3, Henno often uses a CAR-15 with an M203 of unknown variant. It looks like an XM177E2, except that it has a brass deflector on the receiver. This carbine may be intended to represent an early model Diemaco C8 with a different barrel. Original C8's used an "A2" type upper receiver with "A1" sights in the carrying handle on a fully automatic lower receiver. In British Service, the C8 (with a flat-top upper) is now the L119A1 and easily confused with it's American M4 relatives. The "low-slung" grenade launcher mount supports this hypothesis as the C8-series lacks the notched barrel of the M4-series carbines.

| | |
| Model 733 CAR-15s (with 11.5-inch barrels and [[M16 rifle series#M16A2 Rifle|M16A2]]-style receivers) are used in several episodes, most notably Episode 3.4, "Weapon of Choice".

| ==Colt Model 653==
| |
| Lt. Dotsy Doheny ([[Jamie Bamber]]) used a Colt 653 with a solid stock, 16 inch Barrel and M16A1 Flash Eliminator in Episode 1.6, "Something to Do with Justice".

| |
| Cpl. Jamie Dow ([[Jamie Draven]]) can briefly be seen using a [[M16_rifle_series#Colt_Carbine.2FModel_653.2FModel_727.2FModel_733|Colt Model 733]] in Episode 1.6, "Something to Do with Justice" whilst covering the team's extraction towards the end of the episode. This particular M733 is built using an A2 style upper.

| |
| | |
| ==Heckler & Koch HK33==
| |
| | |
| Another weapon which appears regularly in the series is the [[Heckler & Koch HK33]], and more specifically, the HK33A3 retractable-stock variant. Red Troop typically uses these weapons with claw mounts and scopes as semi-automatic sniper rifles (i.e. Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie" and 3.4, "Weapon of Choice"). They also appear in the hands of French special forces in Episode 2.1, "Communication".

| |
| | |
| ==Heckler & Koch HK53==
| |
| In Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie" several members of Red Troop can briefly be seen with [[HK53]]s when they rescue Jamie at the end of the episode. In real life these weapons were frequently used by both the SAS and "The Det" (14 Intelligence Company) in Northern Ireland due to their combination of concealability and firepower.

| |
| | |
| ==AK-47/AKM variations==
| |
| | |
| Many [[AK-47]] and [[AK-47#AKM|AKM]] variants appear in the series in the hands of terrorists, rebel groups, and Third World armies. Red Troop also use AKs sometimes when they are out of ammunition for their own weapons, or when other weapons are not available.
| |
| | |
| Typical of most movies and TV shows made in the West, the Chinese [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Norinco Type 56]] (particularly the folding-stock Type 56-1) is the most frequently-seen Kalashnikov derivative in the series.
| |

| |
| | |
| [[AK-47#AKM|AKM]] rifles (or possibly Egyptian MISR copies or some other derivative) also appear in many episodes.
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| Also common in the show are Yugoslav [[Zastava M70|Zastava M70B1 and M70B2]] assault rifles (i.e. Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie", and Henno also uses an M70B1 in Episode 1.6, "Something to Do with Justice"). These are Yugoslavian AKM variants with folding ladder sights for launching grenades.

| |
| | |
| ==Heckler & Koch G3==
| |
| | |
| In Episode 3.2, "Never Go Back", Red Troop used quite a few [[Heckler & Koch G3]] rifles (some A3s, and some A4s) during the mission to Zimbabwe.
| |

| ==Heckler & Koch G36C==
| |
| | |
| One of the weapons in the arms stash in Episode 3.2, "Never Go Back" is a [[Heckler & Koch G36#Heckler & Koch G36C|Heckler & Koch G36C]] which is briefly handled but never used.

| ==Steyr AUG==
| |
| | |
| In Episode 3.2, "Never Go Back", Becca and Dave both used [[Steyr AUG|Steyr AUG A1]] rifles.

| ==L85A1==
| |
| | |
| British personnel throughout the show are seen wielding [[Enfield L85 rifle series#L85A1|L85A1]] service rifles, which Red Troop themselves (like the real-life SAS) never use, also Since Ultimate Force was filmed after 2000 the L85A1s would Have been replaced with the upgraded [[Enfield L85 rifle series#L85A2|L85A2]] variant by Heckler & Koch.

| |
| | |
| ==M4A1==
| |
| | |
| [[M16 rifle series#M4/M4A1 Carbine|Colt M4A1]] or something similiar. We start seeing these in season 4. I've only watched episode 1 of season 4, will replace some of the caps with others if they show up in the rest of the season. They might not be real M4s judging from the barrels. Everyone's in that episode except Louis had these M4s. Jem's Car-15 was selected either because they ran out of M4s or because his was able to attach an M203.
| |
| | |
| Becca's has a 16-inch barrel, so it may be a Colt Law Enforcement Carbine (like the one in ''[[I Am Legend]]''). Henno's appears to have correct barrel length.

| ==Accuracy International AW50F==
| |
| | |
| In Episode 1.2, "Just a Target", Jamie ([[Jamie Draven]]) goes undercover and joins a militant anti-globalization group which wants him to assassinate an international banker. The terrorists give him a huge .50 BMG [[Accuracy International Arctic Warfare series#AW50 / AW50F|AW50F]] long-range rifle, which none of them are able to fire accurately, and ask him to use it for the assassination. Jamie winds up using the gun to kill one of the terrorists at point-blank range, firing from the hip in a small room (in real life, doing this would cause anyone to go deaf).
