I have a question. Do you think that the Germans researched to much into strange and different plane designs that were realistically difficult to produce and could only be produced in small numbers.
Designs like the Me-162 had almost no impact on the war. Do you think funding and resources would have been better directed to produce piston engined fighters. Planes like the Me-262 obviously would argue this point, however this was the only plane that had any sort of real impact.
While I understand the importance of research and development and the need for Germany to improve and create new designs in the long term. However considering the position of Germany in 1944 and 1945 I would have thought defence and survival would have been a top priority.
Feel free to express your opinion as I dont know much on the subject and im interested to learn more
