Porco Rosso (Japanese: 紅の豚, Hepburn: Kurenai no Buta, lit. Crimson Pig) is the sixth film from Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki. At the end of the 1920s, during the reign of the Italian fascists, the Pig-headed pilot Porco Rosso, a veteran of the First World War, fought for peace in the sky around the Mediterranean as a bounty hunter. On his travels, he teamed up with the talented mechanic Fiona. When Porco Rosso is challenged to a duel by a boastful pilot, a fight begins that will forever change the lives of the two flying aces
The following firearms are used in the anime film Porco Rosso:
Italian Organizzazione per la Vigilanza e la Repressione dell'Antifascismo (Italian for "Organization for Vigilance and Repression of Anti-Fascism") secret police officers can be seen with low-detailed pistols during the take off in the channel. Due to the setting of the movie, it could be the Beretta M1923.
A few of the pirates carry Mauser rifles with turned-down bolt handles, under-barrel sling swivels, and hooded front sights. These , however, cannot be precisely identified.
Porco purchases an Aircraft Pattern MG08 Maxim with a custom barrel jacket for his red Savoia S.21 biplane. During his memories of a dogfight in 1918, some Austro-Hungarian Hansa Brandeburg CC aircrafts can also seen with these Maxim guns
A large cannon that appears to be a very chunkily-rendered Solothurn S-18 20mm Anti-Tank Rifle given the stock, sight and side-loading, appears mounted on one of the pirates' planes. It loads using some kind of stripper clip arrangement rather than its usual box magazine, and the barrel and rounds are scaled up to the point it resembles a small tank gun.
