-

Trivia:
|
- The APC was modeled after an airplane tug.
- Bishop's Knife trick was previously in Roman Polanski's Knife in the Water
- Bishop's Knife trick was also previously seen in John Carpenter's Dark Star. Like Bishop, Boiler misses too.
- "She thought they said 'illegal aliens' and signed up..." said Hudson. This line (directed towards Vasquez) was in inside joke amongst the actors. Jenette Goldstein (Vasquez) had gone to the audition thinking the film would be about illegal immigrants. She arrived with waist-long hair and lots of makeup. Everyone else was wearing military fatigues.
- The armor for the film was built by English armorer Terry English, and painted using Humbrol paints.
