Secret Weapons of WW2 Demo Friday

The Battlefield 1942 Website (thanks Frans) has word that Friday is when to expect a demo for the Secret Weapons of World War II add-on for Battlefield 1942. The update includes a couple of new screenshots, with the promise of more to come tomorrow. Here's the scoop on the demo:
The demo also unleashes the power of ten of the 16 new weapons in Secret Weapons of WWII. Fly and fight at the same time with the experimental German rocket pack, or buzz the skies in one of the new compact dynamo fighter planes—the Axis Natter rocket plane or the Allied F-85 Goblin. Both the Axis and Allies also have new motorcycles with machine gun-mounted sidecars, as well as amphibious assault vehicles: the German Schwimmwagen and the American LVT-2 Water Buffalo. The new Axis Flakpanzer, a T-38 tank with an anti-aircraft gun mounted on top, is a nasty beast—but it looks tame compared to the Allies’ Sherman tank with a T-34 Calliope rocket launcher.

With all this plus new hand-held weapons such as silenced SMGs, new assault rifles, and deadly throwing knives, become a deadly force on the most intense virtual battlefields ever created. Prepare yourself for all-out war in the Battlefield 1942: Secret Weapons of WWII demo, available August 8, 2003 here at the official BF1942 website.

Yeah, pretty sure I saw a show on the History channel that pointed the roots of the AK-47 right to Nazi Germany. Sure, the Russians tinkered with a lot of technology but they stole the best of it.

Other examples is their B-29 copy and their early jets which look just like late war Nazi prototypes.
