At 13 seconds, I hear Captain America say something like:
Body armor: AR15s. I make 7 hostiles.
What does he mean by "I make 7 hostiles" in this context?
Does he mean that he makes the total number of hostiles 7 by taking out some?
If so, why didn't he say "I make hostiles 7" instead?

khoffI think it means "I have determined that there are seven hostiles."Does "make" have the meaning of "determine"?

Yes, occasionally. You might also hear "I make out . . . . " It means it identify (with some difficulty).
