The [[MG34]] is used as a support weapon by the German faction.

The MG34 Panzerlauf is pintle-mounted on the Panzer II, III and IV tanks, Panther and Tiger tanks, the Stug III Ausf.

'Forgotten Hope' is a 2003 modification for Battlefield: 1942. Featuring maps based on key battles in the Second World War, from the invasion of Poland in 1939 to the fall of Germany in 1945, the action takes place across all four major theaters of the war - Western and Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean and the Pacific. With eleven different countries available, players can use dozens of authentic WW2-era small arms and vehicles. Due to the popularity of the mod, a sequel, Forgotten Hope 2, was released in 2005 for Battlefield 2.
The Colt M1911A1 is the main sidearm for U.S. troops. It should be noted that, unlike in Battlefield 1942, sidearms are issued to only a few select classes, such as Officers, Snipers and Antitank Gunners, rather then as a back-up for all classes.
The Bergmann MP18 is used as a submachine gun by the Imperial Japanese Army faction. This is actually not a historical liberty, for the Bergmann MP18 was fielded by Japanese Marines and saw combat in China and the South Pacific before being replaced by the Type 100 in 1942. It uses a 32-round box magazine.
The M1903A4 Springfield is used as a sniper rifle by U.S. infantrymen. Unlike in Battlefield 1942, where a Sniper class was available, scoped rifles in Forgotten Hope are rare to come by and function as "easter eggs".
Unsurprisingly, the M1 Garand is the main-issue battle rifle for U.S. troops in-game. On some maps and for some classes it can be fitted with a rifle grenade. The M1-C variant, fitted with a telescopic sight, is available on some maps.
The Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I is the main battle rifle for the Commonwealth factions. On some maps and for some classes it can be fitted with a rifle grenade.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingLee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British. This was the main battle rifle of British and Commonwealth forces during World War Two, however, it was supplemented heavily with the older Lee Enfield No.1 MK.III. First placed in service with the British military in 1941.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I in Forgotten Hope.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThird-Person view of the Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I in Forgotten Hope.
The main weapon of the Red Army faction in-game is the Mosin-Nagant M91/30. A scoped M91/30 is available as an "easter egg". It is also used by the Finnish faction.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingMosin Nagant M38 Carbine - 7.62x54mm R. This is the version issued during most of World War 2, the M44 would not be fielded until the last six months of the war. Note slightly shorter barrel, lack of brass reinforcements in the Sling holes and lack of bayonet notch in the stock.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe Mosin Nagant M91/30 in Forgotten Hope.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThird-Person view of the Mosin Nagant M91/30 in Forgotten Hope.
Tokarev SVT-40
Also used by the USSR faction in-game is the Tokarev SVT-40. A scope SVT-40 is also available as an "easter egg".
The kb ppanc wz.35 is used by the Polish faction. Under the designation of M35, it is also used by German antitank troops in early maps (the Wehrmacht did use the Wz.35 in combat in real life, as did the Italians).
The Arisaka Type 99 is the main weapon of the Imperial Japanese Army faction. It is never seen without a bayonet, although the bayonet cannot actually be used in melee combat.
The US support gunner class carries the Browning Automatic Rifle M1918A2. It is fitted with a bipod, although the bipod serves no practical purpose. It can be fired at 450 or 600 rounds per minute.
The Bren Mk1 is carried by Commonwealth support gunners. It is also mounted in machine gun nests and bunkers, and on the Universal Carrier and the British version of the US M3A1 Halftrack.
The M1941 Johnson Machine Gun is available in-game as an "easter egg" for the Canadian faction. Canadian special forces did indeed operate the Johnson in World War Two.
The Degtyaryov DP-28 is the standard support weapon of the Red Army and Finnish factions. It is also mounted in bunkers and on the turret of the NKL-26 Aerosan and the Russian version of the M3A1 Halftrack.
The MG34 is used as a support weapon by the German faction. It is mounted on the M2 tripod (the Lafette would be far more accurate), in bunkers and machine gun nests, and on the Sturmboot landing craft, the Type 166 Schwimmwagen, SdKfz 251/1 "Hanomag" Halftrack and SdKfz 222 Armored Car, the turret of the Panzer IV Ausf. H, Sturmpanzer IV Brummbär, Panther and Tiger tanks and at the tail-gunner seat on the Junkers Ju 87 Stuka dive bomber. The MG34 Panzerlauf is pintle-mounted on the Panzer II, III and IV and Panther and Tiger tanks.
The MG42 is also used by the German faction, as a man-portable gun, mounted on the M2 tripod and in machine gun nests and bunkers, and mounted coaxially on the Jagdpanzer IV/70 (V) and Jagdpanther tank destroyers and on the turret of the Flakpanzer IV "Ostwind" antiaircraft gun and the Stug III Ausf. G tank destroyer, in the tail-gunner seat on the Junkers Ju 87 "Stuka" dive bomber, and at the gunner positions on the Junkers Ju 88 and Heinkel He 111 heavy bombers.
The Type 96 Light Machine Gun is the used as a support weapon by the Imperial Japanese Army faction in earlier maps. Later maps have it being replaced with the Type 99 Light Machine Gun. It is fitted with a bayonet (a purely aesthetic feature) and a 2.5x optical sight.
The main support weapon of the Imperial Japanese faction is the Type 99 Light Machine Gun. It is also mounted in machine gun nests and bunkers, and on the Daihatsu Landing Craft.
