The following weapons appear in the film Pearl Harbor:

Pearl Harbor (2001)


Webley Mk IV

While serving with the British Royal Air Force's Eagle Squadron early in the film, Lt. Rafe McCawley (Ben Affleck) carries a Webley Mk IV revolver as his sidearm. He is seen only using it once when he tries to shoot out the canopy of his Supermarine Spitfire fighter when trying to bail out after suffering critical damage during a dogfight with German fighters during the Battle of Britain.

During the Battle of Britain, Heinkel He-111 bombers can be seen armed with MG15 machine guns as defensive armament, though these prove no match for the R.A.F. Spitfires.

M1928A1 Thompson

During the attack on Pearl Harbor, several M1928A1 Thompsons can be seen wielded by U.S. military personnel, fitted with 50-round drum and 30-round box magazines. The usage of the 30-round box magazines is highly inaccurate because it was invented in 1942 together with the M1 Thompson and the 20-round magazine would have been accurate.

All BAR's used in the movie were WWII/Korea M1918A2 fitted with WWI era handguards and buttstocks to make them look like the older version. Although most WWI era BAR's were modernized, the handguard was usually the first thing that was replaced or converted.

Browning M2HB Heavy Machine Gun

The Browning M2HB heavy machine gun makes several appearances in the film, most notably during the attack on Pearl Harbor where Petty Officer Doris Miller (Cuba Gooding Jr.) uses a pair of M2HB's in a twin naval anti-aircraft mounting aboard the U.S.S. Nevada to shoot down several Japanese aircraft and when Lt. "Gooz" Wood (Michael Shannon) mans one to defend the auxiliary airfield.

Browning M2 Aircraft Heavy Machine Gun

The Browning M2 Aircraft heavy machine gun appears in the film as the primary armament of U.S. aircraft, specifically the P-40 Warhawk fighters and the B-25 Mitchell bombers, the latter of which have some removed and replaced with black-painted broomsticks to reduce weight and maximize fuel economy.

Browning AN/M2 Machine Gun

During Lt. McCawley's service with the Eagle Squadron during the Battle of Britain, his Supermarine Spitfire can be seen packing Mk 2 machine guns, the British version of the American Browning AN/M2 machine gun as the main armament, chambered for the .303 British round instead of the American .30-06 cartridge. In some shots, such as the screenshot below, the muzzle flashes are emerging from where the 20mm Hispano cannons would be. The four Brownings would be positioned further out along the wing, near where the roundels are. Most Spitfires during the Battle of Britain were only armed with 8 MGs and no cannon, however, as the early cannon-armed Spitfires were buggy and unreliable. At the start of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the tail gunner on a Japanese B5N "Kate" torpedo bomber can be seen firing on people below with another Browning AN/M2 machine gun on a flex mount. This is highly inaccurate, as the Kate was equipped with a Type 92 machine gun, Japan's version of the Lewis gun for the tail gunner, as shown below.

M1911A1

After crashing in Japanese-occupied China, the surviving B-25 Mitchell crews are armed with only M1911A1 pistols to defend themselves. Soon after recovering from the crash, the crews are captured by Imperial Japanese Army soldiers, though a firefight soon erupts, resulting in the death of all the Japanese soldiers, and the loss of Captain Danny Walker (Josh Hartnett). A few M1911A1's can also be seen in the hands of U.S. military personnel during the attack on Pearl Harbor, most notably when several soldiers inspect a crashed Japanese plane.

M1 Garand

Arisaka Type 38

After crashing in Japanese-occupied China, the surviving B-25 Mitchell crews are captured by Japanese soldiers armed with Arisaka Type 38 rifles, one of which is used to fatally wound Captain Danny Walker during a brief shootout. Afterward, the remaining survivors commandeer some of these rifles until they make contact with the Chinese.
