Zero Dark Thirty is the 2012 drama that focuses on one CIA analyst's involvement in the decade-long American manhunt to capture or kill Osama Bin Laden. The film was also one of the first to dramatize the raid on the Bin Laden's compound by US Navy SEALs in 2011. Directed by Kathryn Bigelow (Point Break, The Hurt Locker), the film encountered controversy in regards to whether the filmmakers were given classified information about details of the Bin Laden operation and the film's original release date (October 2012) occurring so close to the American presidential elections. The U.S. release date was pushed back to a limited release on December 19, 2012. and a wide release on January 13, 2013. Like the similarly themed SEAL Team Six: The Raid On Osama Bin Laden, portions of the film was shot in India (standing in for Pakistan) as well as in Jordan.

The following weapons were used in the film Zero Dark Thirty:
