Soldiers in the helicopter demo mission are armed with very low-detail smallarms, making it impossible to determine make or model; all that can really be said is the insurgent weapon looks vaguely AK-ish and the American weapon vaguely M4-ish.
Enemy "SAM" soldiers seem to be armed with very low-detail FIM-92A Stinger launchers.

Note the launcher seems designed to produce a "man with Stinger" shadow rather than be an accurate model; normal engagement range in the game is much further away, so a convincing shadow is all that is really needed.
Type 69 RPG
As with the Stinger, the Type 69 RPG used by insurgents seems to be designed more to cast an RPG-like shadow than to be accurate in detail, but the weapon is clearly held with one hand rested above the tube rather than on a second handgrip, meaning it is not an RPG-7. These weapons still sound a lock-on tone when fired, but appear to be unguided, simply travelling in a straight line.
The GE M134 Minigun appears in the game door-mounted on MH-60L Blackhawk helicopters. It should be noted that this is the first game in the Ace Combat franchise to feature helicopters as playable aircraft.
The DShK heavy machine gun can be seen in the demo mounted on technical trucks and a T-55 tank.

This allows all the detail of the DShK to be seen easily without the whole dying thing.Error creating thumbnail: File missingDuring the demo, Shooter 1 also has to engage this T-55, which can fire both its main gun and the commander's DShK heavy machine gun at the Apache.
KVPT & PKT Machine Guns
In the helicopter demo mission, the player character's helicopter is attacked by a number of BDRM-2 armoured scout cars (called "APCs" in-game), armed with turrets mounting a KVPT 14.5mm heavy machine gun and a coaxial PKT machine gun.
The M61 Vulcan appears in the game as a secondary weapon on several playable fighters, including the F-14D Super Tomcat, F-4E Phantom, F-16C Fighting Falcon, Mitsubishi F-2A, F/A-18E & F Super Hornet, F-15C Eagle, F-15E Strike Eagle, and F-22A Raptor.
In the helicopter demo level, the player has to face three Hind-D helicopters armed with missiles and chin-mounted Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B four-barrel gatling guns.

ZU-23-2
In some missions, the player will be engaged by enemies manning ZU-23-2 anti-aircraft guns.
In one trailer, a soldier is seen standing in front of a row of 2S6M "Tunguska" self-propelled AA systems, armed with missiles and twin 2A38M autocannons.
