Delta Force: Black Hawk Down is a first-person shooter video game and the sixth installment of the Delta Force series, developed and published by NovaLogic and released on March 2003 for the PC, Mac OS X, PlayStation 2 and Xbox.
The storyline takes place in the year 1993, during both Operation Restore Hope and Operation Gothic Serpent, as part of the Somalian Civil War. On the first missions, the player takes the role as Task Force Ranger and 10th Mountain Division soldier, later as a Delta Force operator.
On January 20, 2004, an expansion pack called Delta Force: Black Hawk Down - Team Sabre was released, featuring two new single-player campaigns taking place in Colombia and Iran, also introducing a few more weapons and vehicles.
The following weapons appear in the video games Delta Force: Black Hawk Down and Delta Force: Black Hawk Down - Team Sabre:
Handguns
Beretta Hybrid
An indistinct model of the Beretta 92, identified as the M9, is the main sidearm of Task Force Ranger and the 10th Mountain Division, featuring a 15-round magazine and higher accuracy than the M1911A1 in exchange for less power per-shot. Delta Force operators are seen with M9s in leg holsters. Despite its in-game name, the actual base 92FS model that had been issued as the M9 is not present; the inventory image shows it with the shortened barrel and slide of the Centurion. The in-game model likewise appears to be a hybrid of the earlier 92S and 92SB, featuring a rounded trigger guard, with the safety/decocker only modeled on the left side like the 92S, but with its reload animation suggesting the magazine release button is at the base of the trigger guard like the 92SB.
M1911A1
The M1911A1, called "Colt .45" in-game, is the main sidearm of Delta Force. Is more powerful than the Beretta but less accurate.
Shotguns
Remington Model 870
The Remington Model 870 is the only available shotgun in the game. Not accurate but very powerful. Can be found under the secondary weapon category.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5SD3
The Heckler & Koch MP5SD3, simply referred to as "MP5" in-game, is the only submachine gun featured, and is specific to the CQB class, only available to Delta Force. Note that, in the gear selection menu, an image of an MP5A3 fitted with a suppressor is erroneously displayed instead.
Rifles / Carbines
Colt Model 727
The Colt Model 727, incorrectly called "CAR-15" in-game, is the main weapon of Delta Force, featuring Aimpoint CompM2 red dot sight and available only to Delta Force. A version with M203 grenade launcher is also featured in-game. Of note is the in-game weapon model is that of a Model 727, while the selection screen shows a GAU-5/A carbine (AKA the Colt Model 610 - The U.S. Air Force adopted version of the XM177) for the standard rifle. A 727 is correctly shown for the M203-mounted version.
M16A2
The M16A2, called "M16" in-game, is the main weapon of Task Force Ranger and 10th Mountain Division soldiers, and can be fired on semi-auto and 3-round burst. A version with M203 grenade launcher is also featured in the game. Note that the M16A2 has an incorrect 14.5" barrel like the Colt Model 727, though ironically the M16A2/M203 combo version has the right 20" barrel. Another note of interest are two modeling mistakes: The first one will be the M16A2's left side is actually the mirror of the right side, same as in the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series, eventually lacks the forward assist, brass deflector, ejection port and its dust cover and magazine release button, and the second one is while the NPCs are firing their weapons on 3-round burst, their fire selector switch is set on semi-auto.
Heckler & Koch G36E
The Heckler & Koch G36E, called "G36" in the game, is a new assault rifle added in the Team Sabre expansion pack.
Heckler & Koch G3A3
The Heckler & Koch G3A3, called "G3" in the game, is a new battle rifle added in the Team Sabre expansion pack.
AKM
The AKM is used by Somali militia and Pakistani UN soldiers.

Machine Guns
M249E2 SAW
The M249 SAW, called "SAW" in-game, is one of several individual machine guns available in the game.
M60E3
The M60E3, incorrectly called "M60" in-game, is one of three available machine guns. A modeling mistake shows the in-game weapon with an M60-style heat shield, lack of both fore grip and front sight. The weapon selection screen also shows an image of a standard M60 rather than an E3 variant.
M240B
The M240B is one of several individual machine guns available in the game.
Browning M2HB
The Browning M2HB is emplaced at certain points on a map or mounted to Humvees. Sometimes substitutes the DShK heavy machine gun.
