| - 5.45x39mm is a type of ammo used by several enemy class assault rifles in the SOCOM Series.
- The 5.45x39mm is a type of ammunition in Jagged Alliance: Back in Action.
- It was the Soviet's answer to the 5.56 cartridge, but is not a copy of the round, because 5.45 has a much larger bullet and has much more detrimental ballistics. The idea behind 5.45 was to be fast, smaller and devastating, rather than slow and big like the 7.62x39. This move was done to get more of an armor piercing effect from faster and more efficient ammunition, although both 7.62 and 5.45 are both still used today.
