Build all of Siegfrieds Vunder Veapons (with what? no nazi fanboi ever bothers with the cost in money and materials) delay the inevitable by a year or two and all of Germany is a pile of radioactive rubble with a red flag on top. Germany lost the war in 1938 it was just a matter of how long till the noise stopped.
Exactly Steve,
The Reich was not defendable. The best was an occasional allied bloodied nose....sheer allied mass would always win.
The Germans could not fight Russia, Britain, the Commonwealth and America and hope to survive virgo intacto.

Launch at night? ....
didnt they have "heavy water" plants in norway??
I think this is simplistic, if only because it was never inevitable that Germany would wind up facing the combined allies. The BoB and BOA were close run things - if the Germans had managed to take the UK out it is not difficult to iumagine they might have done the same to the USSR before the USA got involved and made the difference it did. I'd say they were in the game up until Dec 7 1941.
Nazi idealology seemed to accept a pact between Moscow and Berlin before WW2. Why not in 1943 ?
But from the German viewpoint, which usually had little connection with reality,
No, not in 1943. This was a war to destroy the other, to the end.Nazi idealology seemed to accept a pact between Moscow and Berlin before WW2. Why not in 1943 ?

And with the German defeat at Stalingrad, why would Russia make a truce?
I respectfully disagree.I can see that the Soviets probably would not accept any kind of ceasefire, treaty, or whatever from Germany, because they had no problem remembering how well their last agreement with the Nazis worked out. The only way they would trust a German now, was if they were standing on his neck.
But from the German viewpoint, which usually had little connection with reality, there's no reason they shouldn't approach Russians with a offer.
And this is way off the topic of "Defense of the Reich"...LOL!
I respectfully disagree.
