Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg ([[Gary Oldman]]) makes a deal with the Mangalores that involves selling them his company's new Zorg ZF-1 pod weapons system. The ZF-1 contains a machine gun, rocket launcher, poison arrow launcher, net launcher, flamethrower, and freeze ray. Simon Atherton, the armorer who designed and built the weapons used in ''The Fifth Element'', has said in an interview for a science-fiction magazine that firing versions of the ZF-1 were built around 5.45x39mm [[AK-74#AKS-74U|AKS-74U]] carbines. It is also possible to see the AKS-74U magazine on the weapon in some scenes. In scenes where the ZF-1 is not fired, inert models are used instead; the firing ZF-1s can be distinguished by an ejection port on the right side of the upper body shell. | |||
