Red Dawn (2012)
Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
Red Dawn is the remake of the 1984 Charlie Sheen/Patrick Swayze film of the same name. The 2011 remake stars Chris Hemsworth and Jeffrey Dean Morgan and involves an invasion of the continental United States by a what appears to be a combination of Chinese and Russian forces instead of just the Soviets in the original film.
The following weapons appear in the remake of the film Red Dawn:
AKM (Modified to resemble AK-103)
The standard assault rifle of the People's Liberation Army Ground Force (PLAGF) in the film appears to be the AKM, visually modified with the addition of plastic furniture and AK-74-style muzzle brakes to resemble the AK-103. This is an error since the Chinese no longer have any Kalashnikov-style rifles (including the Norinco Type 56 and Norinco Type 81) in frontline service, but currently use Norinco QBZ-95 and QBZ-03 rifles.
DSC: The soldiers in the movie might be rear-guard troops, in which case they'd probably have second-hand weapons.
AKMSU
The AKMSU carbine is used by PLA soldiers and the Wolverines, modified with what appears to be a KCI quad rail system.
Norinco Type 67
What appears to be a Norinco Type 67 machine gun is mounted on a PLA armored personnel carrier.
Browning M2HB
The Browning M2 machine gun is seen mounted on PLA Humvees and tanks.
