GEAR GUIDE - Shadows of the Fathers

Here’s a guide to some of the guns, gear, and equipment found in SHADOWS OF THE FATHERS.

Winning Wheels: At home, Hunter Long drives a modified Land Rover Defender 110. When he arrives in Mexico, an armored Mercedes G63 is waiting for him.

Safehouse Siege: Glock 19s with Trijicon red dot sights and Daniel Defense MK18 short-barreled rifles are the bare minimum when you are trapped by a squad of cartel enforcers. You find grenades, but what happens when you use them in a confined space?

Lab Loadout: Jess and Victor explore a suspected lab with Sig Sauer MCX Rattlers in .300 Blackout with EOTech Holographic Weapon Sights. Victor gets creative with a KA-BAR knife.

Initiative Cartel Crafts: The Eurocopter is the choice for comfort and quiet operations, no matter how hot the weather or who might be tracking you. The Russian-made Su-30MK2V is a two-seat, multirole fighter optimized for maritime strike, air superiority, and long-range patrol - your own personal death machine. Should you need to make a quick exit, the fast and luxurious Gulfstream G450 has the range to get you from Mexico to Colombia.

Mixed-use Machines: Crop drones can be loaded up with seeds, fertilizer, and other powders, and Single-Engine Air Tankers like this Air Tractor AT-802 can carry and drop around 800 gallons of your choice of liquid. Your imagination is your only limitation.

Darts from Drones: With a little creativity, drones can deliver various packages, such as this unknown model equipped with the Chinese-made, fire-and-forget QN-202 Dart. Weighing 2.6 pounds each, the mini-missiles have a range of 2 km.

Good Guns Gone Bad: Blame the guy, not the gun, like the General with his Colt 1911 in .45 ACP. A guard is armed with a 9mm Sig Sauer P226, and another bad dude has a Bond gun in a shoulder holster - the Walter PPK in .380 ACP. But can these guys hold onto their weapons?

Santi’s Essentials: Cartel leader Santiago Arias never leaves home without a few things: A Desert Eagle .50 AE (holster optional), a satellite phone, cigars, and, in case of thick foliage or skulls, a machete.

Russian Goon Guns: Whether you choose the classic AK-47 or keep it modern with the AK-15, the heavy 7.62x39mm round with pack a punch. For stealth, keep a few push daggers at the ready.

Mexican Metal: The Mexican Army has some heavy metal at its disposal, including the Ocelot used to combat heavily-armed narco-tanks. They also operate two French-designed vehicles: the VCR light personnel carrier and the compact VBL, which is used for reconnaissance and patrol. The FX-05 Xiuhcoatl, nicknamed the "Cartel Killer," is the standard service rifle of the Mexican Armed Forces.

The Rescue: Victor’s chosen long gun is the 7.62 x 51mm H&K Squad Designated Marksmanship Rifle, or M110A1, equipped with the SIG Sauer TANGO6T 1-6x24mm variable power optic. Can he make the shot from over 600 yards out from the Ocean Pro 31?

Bienvenidos a Colombia - Jungle Rides: Santiago’s Bell UH-1N Huey looks rough on the outside, but the interior has been modified for comfort. Twin all-electric conversion FJ43 Land Cruisers and the Stark Varg high-performance electric motobike allow for even deeper runs through the jungle.

Homeward Bound: If you just helped prevent a global catastrophe, you deserve to head home in style. The Porsche Taycan is one pricey airport car, but this fast wagon has plenty of room in the back for suitcases stuffed full of souvenirs. The Mercedes-Benz-styled Airbus Corporate Helicopter, the ACH 145, is a luxury transport helicopter designed for VIP transport. With a top speed of Mach 2.5, the F-15EX Eagle II, the most advanced version of the legendary F-15 fighter, will get you home in a flash, but make sure you avoid heavy meals before takeoff.
