Tropico 4 (2011)

Tropico is a construction and city building game series where the player assumes the role of the leader of a tropical banana republic. Tropico 1 (2001), Tropico 3 (2009), and Tropico 4 (2011) have a modern setting which gives the player the control of small Caribbean island during the Cold War. Tropico 4 uses the same engine and models as Tropico 3.

The following weapons are featured in the Tropico series:


M1911A1

Generals and El Presidente carry M1911A1 pistols in Tropico 3 & 4.

Smith & Wesson M&P357

Policemen carry Smith & Wesson M&P357 pistols in Tropico 3 & 4. Customs officers were introduced in Tropico 4 and carry the same pistol. Note that the model is mirrored and is therefore missing the ejection port.

The statues have M16A2 rifles and AK type rifles. The right statue uses the soldier and the rebel models from the game.

M16A2

Soldiers in Tropico 3 & 4 carry M16A2 rifles. These rifles are anachronistic because the M16A2 was introduced in the 1980s and Tropico starts in 1950 meaning the M16 rifle series would not be around until a decade after the game is set.

KPVT Heavy Machine Gun

The Junta DLC adds military-themed decorations. These include armored fighting vehicles, which appear to be BTR-60s with a standard KPVT Heavy Machine Gun.

Since they are only decoration, it can be assumed that they are made from paper-mâché.

M60 Machine Gun

The icon for the military modernization edict features a South Korean K2 Black Panther tank which presumably mounts a coaxial M60 machine gun.
