Trivia
- Soviet cinema factories lacked modern Western weapon so in movies where the plot take place in Western countries most weapons were of the WW2 era, either captured from the Germans or lend-leased from the UK and US. That's why Sturmgewehr 44, visually modified to resemble M16, are so widely in Soviet action movies of 1970s-80s (including Pirates of the XXth Century (Piraty XX veka), Solo Voyage, Gangsters in the Ocean (Gangstery v okeane), Mirage (Mirazh), Incident at Map Grid 36-80 (Sluchay v kvadrate 36-80) and others).
