Alfa: Antiterror

Alfa: Antiterror is a 2005 turn-based/real-time hybrid strategy game, developed by MiST Land South, (who later became GFI Russia, most notable for developing Hired Guns: The Jagged Edge, which was originally supposed to be Jagged Alliance 3D, the German box art for Alfa even boasts how it's from the developers of Jagged Alliance 3D), with some members of that team eventually forming CatsWhoPlay. 
The player mainly assumes the role of a Russian counter-terror unit Alpha Group but multiplayer/single missions allow the player to play as several other military groups, such as GSG-9.
The game's units can be chosen to take an "Assaulter", "Sniper" or "Grenadier" specialization when starting a mission, essentially selecting a set of weapons (only Snipers can take sniper rifles, Assaulters have a large selection of general weaponry and only Grenadiers get grenade launchers/the more expensive anti-tank launchers, though Assaulters can take disposable anti-tank launchers). 
Submachine guns/carbines are generally available as both primary weapons for Assaulters and Grenadiers and secondary weapons for Snipers, as a primary weapon they can have more ammo taken, are used with stocks added/extended and use a suppressor generally, while they are used with no stock/stock folded and less overall ammo as secondary weapons.
For gameplay, the player issues a series of orders to their soldiers with time paused, then initiates a turn, with all of the player's orders being carried out for 20 seconds, after these 20 seconds, the game pauses again and the player can issue new orders. (Essentially being a hybrid of real-time and turn-based with turns being carried out simultaneously.) 
An standalone expansion was later released: Alfa: Antiterror: Men's Work. This expansion was never translated for other languages but apparently added new equipment to the game. 
Plenty of the weapons included in this game would be reused in Jagged Edge.

== Smith & Wesson 5904 ==
A handgun referred to as the "S&W 5906" is usable despite the fact that the pistol has a black finish and the 5906 has a stainless steel frame. The in-game handgun has a greater resemblance to the Smith & Wesson 5904 because of this.

==Heckler & Koch HK69A1==
The HK69A1 appears, firing explosive grenades.
==RPG-16==

=Other=
==Mortar==
An icon of a mortar (presumably a depiction of the 2B14 Podnos Mortar but the bipod is wrong) is shown for "Fire Support" markers, the player must move a radio man with a mortar icon to these spots and mortar fire will be automatically fired at a different marker showing an explosion with the same number. The Mortar takes 60 seconds before it can fire again.
A similar mechanic is used for friendly armored vehicles such as BMPs, they cannot be directly controlled but a radio man can move to marked locations to radio them.
