    For anyone interested in some minor equipment facts:
    - The respirators famously worn by the SAS soldiers was the British Army's standard respirator at the time, the S6, which was in service from 1966 to 1986 when it was replaced by the more famous S10 (seen in games like CoD4 and CoD:MW)
    - The terrorists' SMGs have been quoted as being the Czech vz.61 Skorpion and the Polish wz.63 RAK in different reliable sources (Russell Philips' book on the topic and the Imperial War Museum's description of the wz.63 respectively), which is likely where the error of "Polish made Skorpion" comes from, the only country other than Czechoslovakia to build Skorpions under licence was Yugoslavia
    However, of these two we only seemingly have a photo of one of the terrorists with the wz.63, so it's the more accurate answer out of the two
