Revision as of 06:51, 16 April 2012
The Brest Fortress (Russian Title: Brestskaya Krepost/Брестская крепость) is a 2010 Russian/Belarusian World War II drama directed by Aleksandr Kott. The film tells about the heroic defense of the Brest Fortress, which had taken upon the first strike of Nazi troops on June 22 1941. The Brest Fortress has become one of the great symbols of the Soviet resistance in World War 2.
The following weapons are featured in the film Brest Fortress (Brestskaya Krepost), The:
Handguns
Luger P08
Tokarev TT-33
Russian Nagant M1895
OSP-30 Flare Pistol
Submachine Guns
MP38
PPD-40
Rifles
Mosin Nagant Rifle
The Mosin Nagant Rifles and Mosin Nagant M38 Carbines are the mainstay weapons of the fortress defenders. Some rifles have hex receivers, as they were manufactured before 1936.
Karabiner 98k
The Karabiner 98k are the mainstay weapon of the German soldiers. Some Soviet troops also use captured Karabiner 98k.
Tokarev SVT-40 Rifle
Machine Guns
PK Machine Gun (modified to resemble MG34)
A modified PK or PKM Stands in for an MG-34, because the filmmakers only had a single genuine MG-34. This mock up was also used in Star (Zvezda), The]]
MG34 Machine Gun
Some German soldiers carry real MG34 Machine Guns, though they are never shown being fired. This was probably due to a lack of sufficient 7.92x57 blanks or belts, as the weapon is never seen loaded. Some Soviet troops also use captured MG34s
PKT Machine Gun
Replicas of the BA-20 armored car carry PKT machine guns as their main armament in the film, rather than the correct (and probably unavailable) DT.
Maxim M1910/30
The defenders of the Brest fortress used several Maxim machine guns in this movie. Some Maxim machine guns have the large filler cap on the top of the water jacket, which appeared at the end of 1941.
Undefined automatic cannon
Messerschmidt Bf.109 shoots from an automatic cannon at Polikarpov I-16 during air combat. This gun has a low rate of fire like as MK 103. But this weapon was appeared on Bf.109 only in 1944. Also Bf.109 has two cannons in the nose in this movie. I guess it is fictional version of the Messerschmidt Bf.109 fighter.
Hand Grenades
Model 24 Stielhandgranate
Model 39 Eihandgranate
RGD-33 Stick Grenade
Other
Flammenwerfer 41
At the end of the movie German troops use flamethrowers to destroy the Soviet resistance.
45mm anti-tank gun M1937 (53-K)
SC-1800 bomb
The Germans dropped a 1800 kg bomb on a Brest fortress, causing its defenders to surrender.
BA-20
Fake PzKpfw III
The fake German PzKpfw III tanks were built on the BMP infantry fighting vehicle chassis, and is an excellent mockup.
Fake Flammpanzer III
At the end of the movie German troops use Flammpanzer III tank. In actuality those tanks appeared in 1943.
