The following weapons were used in the film The Siege of Jadotville:
'A' Company employs several Bren guns. The company sniper switches to a Bren to make a long distance shot, for unknown reasons, likely a reference to the Bren being called "too accurate" by gunners.
'A' Company uses a Vickers Gun mounted on a Land Rover, then on its own with and without a tripod. Commandant Quinlan uses it to shoot down a Fouga Magister.
