Hot Shots! Part Deux (French for "Part Two") is the 1993 sequel to Hot Shots! (1991). Charlie Sheen returns as Topper Harley, who is asked to join a rescue team to get back his former commanding officer who was caught behind enemy lines. Also returning from the first film are Valeria Golino and Lloyd Bridges. While the first film was chiefly a parody of Top Gun, the sequel was mostly a parody of the Rambo films (the cast even includes Rambo co-star Richard Crenna).
The following weapons were used in the film Hot Shots! Part Deux:
Browning M2HB machine guns are dual-mounted on the bow of the Apocalypse Now PBR carrying "Captain Willard" (an uncredited Martin Sheen). Another single M2 is mounted in the stern of the PBR. These are likely just mockups.
In some scenes, the rifle carried by Rabinowitz appears to have a forward assist like on a Colt AR-15A2 Sporter II and the same model of fake M203 used in Predator and Scarface.
AKM
The AKM is the main rifle carried by Iraqi soldiers and sailors in the film.
This weapon is used by many Iraqi soldiers and officers including Rufshaad (Andreas Katsulas). Col. Denton Walters (Richard Crenna) is seen taking up an AKS-47.
Colt XM177E2
Some of the SEALs at the film's beginning carry what appears to be a Colt XM177E2 fitted with an M203 grenade launcher.
Heckler & Koch HK94 (Chopped and Converted, Mocked Up as MP5A3)
Heckler & Koch HK94s chopped and converted to look like the MP5A3 are seen used by Topper, Commander Arvid Harbinger (Miguel Ferrer) and other team members. These HK94's have the slender foregrips of early MP5's.
Handguns
Browning Hi-Power
Iraqi soldiers carry Browning HPs with Pachmayr grips in their holsters.
Colt M1911A1
What appears to be a Colt M1911A1 is seen in the holster of Capt. Benjamin L. Willard (an uncredited Martin Sheen, reprising his role from Apocalypse Now) as gives a thumbs up to his real-life son Charlie Sheen.
Saddam (Jerry Haleva) is seen using what appears to two full auto pistols that resemble the Beretta 93R. These are Beretta 92FS pistols converted to full-auto and customized with 93R barrels and long mags.
The Iraqi Boat Captain (Gregory Sierra) is seen firing an Oerlikon 20mm Cannon that was mounted on the Iraqi ship. In order to make the weapon more menacing, two drum magazines attached together to make a saddle drum are mounted on the weapon instead of the usual single magazine. While there are left-handed 20mm Oerlikon drums, these are rarer than right-handed drums, and so the saddle drum is made from two right-handed drums with the one on the left mounted backwards.
M-47 Dragon Anti-Tank Guided Missile Launcher
An M47 Dragon Anti-Tank Guided Missile Launcher is seen carried by the team. Rabinowitz is seen taking up the launcher while at the prison compound. This particular launcher is missing the optical sight and bipod: in other words, it is an expended launch tube. An actual M47 would not be used as a plain shoulder fired launcher with no other means of support, and could not be fired at all without a sighting unit attached since the trigger is on the right-hand side of the sight (of course this can be overlooked given the way the launcher is actually used in the film).
RPG (Mockup)
The Iraqi sailor shoots with a fake missile built to look like an RPG-type launcher.
