Balkan Dragon militiamen use Strela 2M2J Sava, Yugoslav-made version of the 9K32 “Strela-2” (or SA-7 Grail as a NATO reporting name), against the Antonov An-12 taking off at Planina Airport in the episode "Dragon Shooter, Part 2". Dragan's militia would be first equipped with Yugoslav/Serbian-made weapons before Soviet/Russian-made weapons since the T Republic is based in the Balkans.

Jormungand (named for the serpent in Norse mythology that grew so big that it wrapped around the world) is a twelve episode anime series based on the manga series of the same name by Keitarō Takahashi. It follows the exploits of Jonathan "Jonah" Mar, a child soldier recruited by Koko Hekmatyar to work for the black market side of HCLI, an international shipping corporation that secretly deals weapons all over the globe. The television adaptation began airing on April 10, 2012; a second season has already been greenlit and the first season has been licensed by Funimation for a North American release.
The following firearms were seen in the anime television series Jormungand :
Before introducing him to the rest of her crew, Koko hands Jonah a Browning Hi-Power Mark III in "Gun Metal, Calico Road", which he continues to use as his primary sidearm.
Koko gives Jonah a Colt XSE as a decoy weapon before their confrontation with C.K. Kloshkin in "Gun Metal, Calico Road" (S1E01). Mildo and Lu also use XSEs as their sidearms in "Pulsar".
Karen Lo uses dual SIG-Sauer GSRs as her main sidearm, first seen in "African Golden Butterflies, Part 1". Karen's GSRs can have combat knife modules attached underneath the barrel via picatinny railing. It's used to execute one of her Taishinhai mercenary subordinates for failing to follow her orders. She later uses them to fight Valmet in close quarters in "African Golden Butterflies, Part 2".
Chiquita is seen holding an FN P90 TAC submachine gun with an EOTech red dot sight in the opening credits. She and other bodyguards working under Kasper use it as their main weapon in "Vein".
R can be seen firing a Steyr AUG A1 out a car window during the opening credits. It serves as his primary weapon. Tojo and Valmet also use the AUG A1 as their main weapon, seen in their South African operation in "African Golden Butterflies, Part 1".
A number of Colt CAR-15 rifles appear in throughout the series. Wiley appears to use the CAR-15 as his main assault rifle when he was conducting an escort mission near the southern Russian border. Lehm also uses the CAR-15 as his main weapon when he's not on sniper duty.

IMI Negev
"Master" uses an IMI Negev LMG to take down the CRV driven by Ugo in Dubai in the episode "Musica Ex. Machina, Part 2". It's also seen in a flashback at the start of the same episode.
A 20 mm modèle F2 gun is seen in "African Golden Butterflies, Part 1" mounted on some Denel AH-2 Rooivalks in the DIESA arms fair and on a Mi-24 Super Hind Mark V.

Denel Land Systems MG4
A South African Army Rooikat on static display in the DIESA Arms Expo is seen with the DLS MG4 machine gun as a secondary weapon in "African Golden Butterflies, Part 1". The MG4 is the South African-made version of the Browning M1919.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingA variant of the Browning M1919 developed during World War 2, this model is designated the M37, with the ability to feed from either the left or the right of the weapon - 30-06. The South African version is chambered in 7.62 NATO.File:Jormungand Rooikat.jpgThe DLS MG4 machine gun is seen clearly mounted next to the Denel GT4 76mm 62-calibre rifled gun.
Zastava M87 NSVT
A Zastava M87 NSVT, the Serbian-made version of the Russian NSV machine gun, is seen on a T Republic tracked APC in the episode "Dragon Shooter, Part 1". Since the nameless country is based in the Balkans, it would make sense for its armed forces to be armed with Serbian/Yugoslav-made weapons as a first priority, followed by Russian/Soviet-made weapons.
Tripod-mounted NSV heavy machine gun with ammo box and belt - 12.7x107mm. Compare to the Kord heavy machine gun; note lack of bipod support and older stock with pistol grip underneath the receiver.File:Jormungand APC.jpgA T Republic tracked APC with the Zastava M87 mounted on the left side on the vehicle.

ZU-23-2
A ZU-23-2 "Sergey" 23 mm anti-aircraft twin-barreled autocannon is fielded by a Balkan Dragon militia force to shoot down Koko's HCLI Antonov An-12 in "Dragon Shooter, Part 2". Though the ZU-23-2 hasn't been fielded to any army/militia force in the Balkans in reality, it's possible that the Balkan Dragons acquired it from a Balkan-based standing army in the Jormungand universe, courtesy of the USSR/Russia.
Lehm is seen firing a Remington 700PSS rifle during the opening sequence, usually used as his main sniper rifle. Another 700PSS is seen in "Musica Ex. Machina, Part 1" in the hands of Dubai SWAT snipers.
A Taishinhai contractor takes aim with a IMI Galil Sniper rifle to assassinate Koko and Ugo in Port Elizabeth in the episode "African Golden Butterflies, Part 2".
During the chase scene in the pilot episode, a Voshkod 6 operator tries to take out Koko and Jonah's car with an FGM-148 Javelin. Koko manages to correctly identify the weapon by just the sound the rocket makes when it detonates.
Balkan Dragon militiamen use Strela 2M2J Savas, the Yugoslav-made version of the 9K32 “Strela-2” (or SA-7 Grail as a NATO reporting name), against the Antonov An-12 taking off at Planina Airport in the episode "Dragon Shooter, Part 2". Dragan's militia would be first equipped with Yugoslav/Serbian-made weapons before Soviet/Russian-made weapons since the T Republic is based in the Balkans.
A C4 explosive was used by Wiley to blow up a Somali pirate speedboat in "African Golden Butterflies, Part 1".

"Chinatsu Cannon Special"
In "Musica Ex. Machina, Part 1", Chinatsu uses a fictional weapon referred to as the Chinatsu Cannon Special to take out a Dubai Police Force cruiser responding to the shootout in downtown Dubai. It is a custom-made weapon, having the body of a Colt SAA revolver with a custom-made breech-loaded barrel, which is placed over where the barrel and cylinder of the revolver should be. It is fired similarly to other one-shot grenade launchers like the M79 and the HK69A1.
