The following weapons were used in the film Decision Before Dawn:
Although filming in Germany provided plenty of German wartime equipment, operational German wartime armor was too much to ask for. These were provided by either the US or French armies who assisted in the film.
The USAF provided P-47 Thunderbolts during an air attack scene. This was a bit unusual, as all P-47s were relegated to Air National Guard units when the film was made.
