Car-15:
First used
extensively in Vietnam, the Car-15 soon became the standard assault rifle
for the U.S. Army. It is lightweight, fully automatic and more maneuverable
than the M16, making it the preferred assault rifle for Delta Force. The
only downside is that the shorter barrel reduces accuracy.
---------------------------------------------
M1911A1:
A high-power sidearm
favored for its reliability and stopping power. The Colt M1911A1 has armed
the United States military since 1911. The design, including grip and
trigger was standardized in 1926 and remains unchanged. The pistol is
extremely accurate when used for single shots.
---------------------------------------------
M21:
This
semi-automatic sniper rifle is fitted with a medium power scope. However,
when sniping from helicopters or moving ground vehicles, soldiers often
sight using the fixed sights. Introduced in 1969 as the XM21, it was
initially used in the Vietnam conflict. An upgrade from the M14, it was
initially fielded with a hardwood stock and later replaced with fiberglass.
A bolt-action riffle would provide more accuracy, but the M21 increases the
speed at which targets can be acquired and eliminated.

MP5A3 H&K 9MM SMG:
Currently
the world's most popular sub-machine gun, the MP5 was used primarily by the
160th SOAR pilots as a personal sidearm. It fires a 9mm round that reduces
its stopping power, but is very accurate. The SD variant is fitted with a
suppressor.
