As far as citing a video game as proof...

I'm not citing the video game as proof, Spartan. I'm just showing that John Milius made a Red Dawn game with North Koreans instead of Soviets.

Seriously, Do you think I would really do that?

Well, in my defense, the discussion was centered around the possibility of it happening in real life, influencing how I interpreted it.

RD is not filming up here, almost though.
We are not supplying anything, paper work is a nightmare and we are focusing on our new 3D guns for a show we are doing at the moment.

Here's another interesting weapon in the remake, the Norinco Type 67 machine gun:

And this is what the Russians will look like:

That Type 67 looks like a mocked up FN MAG.

And the russians look nothing like real russian soldiers. I could be wrong, though.

Yes you are. (wrong that is) Modern Russian soldiers have a variety of camo patterns. Also they are often seen using load bearing vests that emulate the modern style of LBE gear being used by western powers. The uniform looks like the Para Flora pattern of Camo, and the placement of the New Russian flag seems correct.



Though the mannequin has pull up boots (which seem to be a classically Russian/Soviet thing) many Russian airborne troops wear lace up boots like nearly every other Army in the world.

But they got the Russian flag on their patches.
