    Jumo 213, what took so long?

    Hitler tought he'd won the war in may 1940, lots of things where put on low speed becouse of that, a grave mistake. Sure there's much, much more to it, yet as a rule of thumb (i hope i use this figure of speech correctly) this thinking didn't do Germany any good, and i'm sure the 213, 603, and...

    Fokker G I

    They (members of the press if i remember correctly) called this plane : the reaper because of it's (in those days) massive firepower.

    BMW 139 information

    LOL, no he probably wouldn't, but someone would, he'd than probably use that knowledge to blackmail the person's responsible for such a "joke" or -more likely- he'd tell the fuhrer that someone was lying to him, wich Hitler didn't like much -like he'd have to guilty party send to the east much...

    BMW 139 information

    Nobody bought licences for prototype engines. Anybody who licensed an engine waited a few years to see how they did in service before plunking down any money. Co-production is a different story but that is not what we are talking about here. Germany was not likely to get a license for the...
