Forgotten Hope 2 is an award-winning World War II modification for Battlefield 2TM and is based on the original Forgotten Hope, a modification for Battlefield 1942TM, one of the most popular multiplayer games ever. Battlefield 1942TM featured land, sea and air combat in a way never before seen. It was the goal of the development team to maximize the game experience by adding both a realistic and enjoyable gameplay to FH and now to FH2.
The PPSh-41 was intended to be an inexpensive replacement for the older, PPD-40 SMG, which had been in use since the mid 1930s. The PPSh was mainly a poor man's infantry weapon. It was made from wood and stamped steel, with the barrels made from halved M1891 Mosin-Nagant barrels. The result was a simple SMG with a fire-rate of 900 rounds per minute, that could be produced in mere hours in garages and industrial shops by relatively unskilled workers. Over 6 million of these weapons were produced, and thus used in almost every thinkable way. Entire Soviet divisions were sometimes equipped with the PPSh, and even the German Army officially adopted it. However, one of the most bizarre uses, was as a close-air support weapon, where several of these SMGs were mounted to the forward racks of the Tu-2 bomber. The PPSh-41 submachine gun was made by Seth Soldier.

Ahem, "Several"? Understatement of the century; there were 80 of the things strapped in that bird, which created a combined fire rate of over SEVENTY THOUSAND ROUNDS PER MINUTE. That's a 7 and FOUR 0's.
If this thing isn't eventually put in the game after all other priority assets are completed, I'll be disappointed. But I'm sure engine limitations would get in the way somewhere.

Wow. Thankyou for that image, it's really quite amazing.
Imagine the hassle of reload it O.o
Sounds like the Russians applied the meaning of "overkill"
First rule of Russian Warfare:
There is no such thing as overkill.
ok thats just overthinking it!
I counted them, there were 88 :)
And actually, during testing it performed towars expecations
Will there be 2 models of the PPsH-41? 1 with the 71 round drum and the other with the 35 round mag?
Most likely.
lol "InSovietRussia"
Just through engine limitations I can say there will be a separate 35 and 71 rnd version. Exactly how they will be distributed to kits remains a mystery though.
Probably the 35 with the NCO kit and the 71 with the regular aussault kit
Cool weapon.
where is soviet union in v2.4 game?
LOVE
