I've had the book for awhile, tho I can't quite put my finger on it if it is actually good. The book takes a quick look at some 20 secret projects of both the Allies and Axis during WWII. A chapter is dedicated to each one (listed below) and provides only the barest technical information. Each one receives an Analysis entry, Hypothetical Deploment History, which is an ATL usually set in the last two years of the war; and a What Fight Have Been, which is a fictional vingnette centered around that vehicle or device.
The Secret Projects:
Land:
Panzerkampfwagne VIII Maus; Landkreuzer P.1000 Ratte; V-3 Hochdruckpumpe; Panzerabwehrrakete X-7 Rotkappchen; Nachtsichtgeraten - German Night Vision Devices; Landkreuzer P.1500 Monster
Air:
Weser WP 1003/1; M1932 Christie "Flying Tank"; The heliofly III/57; the German Space Program; Horten Ho IXB Nachtjager; the German Atomic Bomb; Baimler-Benz Carrier & Parasite Project Series; Sanger Silbervogel Antipodal Bomber
Sea: VS8 Tragflugelboot; Type XI-B U-Cruiser; HMS Habbakuk; Project Loedinge: Seeteufel; Submarine-Launched Rockets
