Benny holds the grenades.
Davey pulls the pin on a grenade.
Davey prepares to throw the grenade while holding his M1A Thompson. The grenades are not shown emitting smoke, and appear to be pull-tab soda cans mocked up as grenades. The grenade in Davey's right hand is slightly crumpled.

Carro Armato M13/40

An Italian M13/40 tank is seen among the inventory at a surplus military vehicle dealer.

Carro Armato M13/40 with 47mm Cannone da 47/32 Modello 1935 main gun and hull-mounted twin Breda Modello 38 machine guns (8×59mm RB Breda). The coaxial machine gun has been removed.

Light Tank (Universal Carrier mockup)

A Universal Carrier is mocked up as a light tank. There were no versions of the Universal Carrier produced with a gun mounted in a rotating turret.

The tank is driven out of the truck, using metal ramps.
The tank blocks the railroad tracks. The tank has the characteristic track wheels of a Universal Carrier.
Note the small bore diameter and thick barrel wall of the main gun, suggesting it is a fake.
After the tank is bumped by the train, the side armor is bent, indicating it is thin sheet metal.

Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress

A Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress is seen late in the film.

The B-17G lifts off.
