Strike Back - Season 3 (also known as Strike Back: Vengeance or Strike Back: Cinemax Season 2) once again stars Phillip Winchester as Sergeant Michael Stonebridge and Sullivan Stapleton as Sergeant Damien Scott, members of a top secret British intelligence unit known as Section 20. Season 3 introduces Rhona Mitra as Section 20's new commanding officer, and Charles Dance as villain Conrad Knox, a wealthy philanthropist who conspires to reshape the political landscape of Africa by acquiring nuclear weapons.
The following weapons are featured in Season 3 of the series Strike Back:
The Beretta 92FS is used by many of the antagonists throughout the series, including Conrad Knox (Charles Dance), his lieutenant Karl Matlock (Vincent Regan) and various mercenaries and criminals. South African Police Service (SAPS) officers in episodes 7-10 also use the Beretta 92FS.
A Beretta 92SB is used by Craig Hanson (Shane Taylor) when he infiltrates Knox's estate in episode 6. A 92SB is also used by the leader of a gang of mercenaries who take Section 20 prisoner in episode 7, and is later used by the teams Communications Officer, Sergeant Liam Baxter (Liam Garrigan).
The Glock 17 is the standard pistol for all Section 20 personnel in Season 3, and is used by Sergeant Michael Stonebridge (Phillip Winchester), Sergeant Damien Scott (Sullivan Stapleton), Captain (later Major) Rachel Dalton (Rhona Mitra), Sergeant Liam Baxter (Liam Garrigan) and Sergeant Julia Richmond (Michelle Lukes). Major Oliver Sinclair (Rhashan Stone) also briefly uses a Glock 17 to kill a Zimbabwean Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO) agent trying to kidnap Lillian Lutulu in episode 7. Matlock's partner Jessica Kohl (Natalie Becker) also wields a Glock 17.
In episode 3, Scott uses a M1911A1 pistol when apprehending a courier named Othmani (Saïd Taghmaoui) at a Tuareg camp in Niger. Markunda (Laëtitia Eïdo) fires a nickel-plated M1911A1 in episode 4 while battling militants in the Hoggar Mountains of Algeria who are attempting to recapture Othmani.
Islamist militant leader El Soldat (Farid Elouardi) uses a Star Model Super while attempting to free his captured brother Othmani in episode 4. A Nigerian gangster also waves one around in episode 10.
In episode 5, Mossad agent Rebecca Levi (Lyne Renée) wields a Vektor CP1 while attempting to hunt down a nuclear scientist named Peter Evans (Paul Freeman).
A Vektor SP1 is used by one of the Israeli assassins who is trying to kill Evans in episode 5. In episode 7, Zimbabwean Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO) agents carry the SP1 when trying to apprehend Lillian Lutulu in Bukohma Township. Craig Hanson also uses a SP1 on several occasions, including when he encounters Stonebridge in episodes 6 and 10. Dual two-tone Vektor SP1s with compensators are used by a Nigerian warlord while fleeing the Johannesburg apartment of Christian Lucas (Nyasha Hatendi) in episode 9.
Scott uses an Armscor BXP while defending a British diplomatic convoy from an attack by Somali militants in episode 1. He also uses a BXP with a reflex sight while infiltrating into Mogadishu to search for Dalton and Patrick Burton (Tim Pigott-Smith) after they were kidnapped in the attack. Later in the same episode, one of Matlock's mercenaries uses a BXP with an EOTech sight. A Mossad assassin in episode 5 also fires a suppressed BXP, and a Nigerian militant in episode 10 uses a BXP to cover his fleeing boss.
Heckler & Koch MP5A3s are used by Nigerien special forces troops when they apprehend Scott in Episode 3. Johannesburg Special Task Force (STF) officers are also armed with MP5A3s in episodes 9 and 10.
A female attacker uses a compact pump action shotgun during the convoy ambush in episode 1. The shotgun appears to be the same one used during the the first series.
SAPS Sergeant Moses Tekere (Mpho Malatsi) points a Mossberg 500 (or possibly, the similar looking South African Mussler 12-gauge) at Stonebridge when he breaks into a police station in Episode 8 to hide the killer of activist Walter Lutulu (Eamonn Walker).
Stonebridge gets ahold of what appears to be a Mossberg 500 modified to resemble the Taser X12 less-lethal shotgun in Episode 8, using it to fire XREP rounds to prevent angry protesters from breaking into the building.
SAS trainees who are being instructed by Stonebridge in Episode 1, including Craig Hanson's brother Jake, are armed with Heckler & Koch G3A4 rifles. The G3A4s are modified with South African-style vented handguards, laser aiming devices, flashlights, red dot sights and 30-round magazines. Stonebridge and Scott later use the G3A4s during their mission in Mogadishu.
Stonebridge, Scott and other Section 20 commandos use M4A1 carbines in Niger during episodes 3 and 4. Other Section 20 operatives including Sgt. Richmond and Sgt. Liam Baxter (Liam Garrigan) also use M4A1 carbines when they attack Knox's disarmament plant in episode 6 and his mercenary camp in episode 8.
Many of the antagonists in the series are armed with AKMS rifles, including Somali militiamen in episodes 1-2, El Soldat's men in episodes 3-4, and some of Knox's mercenaries in episode 8. Major Dalton and Patrick Burton also use AKMS rifles in episode 2, as do Markunda's Tuareg bodyguards in episodes 3 and 4.
Zastava M70AB2s are used by Somali militiamen in episodes 1 and 2. Stonebridge takes one from a dead AMISOM soldier in episode 2 while trying to hold off the Somali militia.
The Vektor R5 is the most common assault rifle in the latter half of the season, used by both Stonebridge and Scott, various South African Police Service (SAPS) officers and Special Task Force (STF) operatives, as well as by many of Knox's mercenaries. The rifles are seen in both unmodified form and with UTG quad rail mounts and CAA railed handguards, as well as various optical sights.
Vektor R5 (Modified to resemble Modern AK-Series Rifle)
The Vektor R5 rifle, modified to resemble the AKS-74, is used by Scott in episode 1 to disrupt an attempt by Waabri to hand over Libyan nuclear triggers to Matlock. El Soldat brandishes a similar rifle in episode 4 while calling on his men to attack Stonebridge and Scott.
The Vektor R4 is occasionally seen in the hands of Knox's mercenaries. Dalton uses a scoped R4 in episode 8 to provide sniper cover during Section 20's raid of a mercenary camp. It has a small capacity mag, possibly 20 round?
Knox's mercenaries are also seen wielding Vektor CR-21 rifles, most notably during a battle at Greenpont Stadium in episode 5 and when Section 20 attacks Knox's nuclear facility in episode 6.
Matlock uses a customized Norncio Type 84S in episodes 2, 4 and 6. The rifle is modified with an AK-74-style muzzle brake, picatinny rails, a scope and a Galil-style folding stock.
Matlock gives Kohl a "customized" AWM sniper rifle as a gift in episode 3. She uses the rifle on several occasions, including in Algeria in episode 4 and during the stadium battle in episode 5.
A modified M16-type sniper rifle is used by Scott and Sgt. Baxter in episode 6. The rifle features an ACOG scope with killflash filter, a railed handguard, foregrip bipod and a Magpul PRS stock.
A Somali militiaman fires a truck-mounted M1919A4 machine gun in episode 1. Kohl is later seen firing two M1919s from a Huey helicopter when Matlock attempts to take the nuclear triggers from Waabri.
Somali militiamen use a RPK light machine gun while covering Waabri when he meets with Matlock. El Soldat's men also use RPKs while attacking Stonebridge and Scott's position in episode 4.
Dalton uses a M136 AT4 to blast a Somali technical in episode 1. Matlock fires a M136 in episode 8 while attempting to kill an assassin that Stonebridge has detained.
