Others
LPO-50 flamethrower
Stroop's soldiers utilize the anachronistic LPO-50 flamethrower (presumably standing in for more period-correct German flamethrowers like the Flammenwerfer 35 or Flammenwerfer 41) when cleaning the streets of the bombed-out ghetto.

Germans fire at rebel positions using direct fire from a 7.5 cm Pak 40 anti-tank gun.

General-major Jurgen Stroop (Jon Voight) also utilizes 76mm artillery.
