What if Germany's missile program would have succeded... What if their assumed UFO project would have become a reality...??? What if their jetfighters would have been ready by the beginning of the war...

I don't think so... Germany was interested in UFO technology...and with a leader like Hitler, who stopped at nothing an by the end of the war he had gone desperate, the project was given green light... Tests have been carried out with different engines and fuselages
 
Most of the things you see are infact not real, however there were thousands of designs they were working on including flying disks. The problem with any of these designs is that they would have been powered by existing jet engines which had to replaced after only 10 hours of flight time which would have limited there effectiveness. This would have been the case until they could design better jet engines. A good site to see some of the experimental aircraft is: http://www.luft46.com/ and a good series of books to check out is the Luftwaffe Secret Projects written by Walter Schick and Ingolf Meyer. The books are a series each one covering bombers, fighters, ground attack, etc. All can be bought from Amazon.
 
it wasn't the design of the engines that limited their use to 10 hours, it was the fact that Germany had run out of the right metals to use in the engines, so they had to use other metals that couldn't take the heat that well............
 
And the fuel. They couldn´t even provide fuel for all jets, not to mention the prop driven planes. Don´t take the Ufo´s seriuos, please. Schriever, Habermohl, Bellunzio and Miethe never succed to build a free flying one. Just some sketches and a very few R/C-planes, only.
 
It never materialized to this day... The topic was "What If?", wasn't it? I never meant to be made fun of... But think at the fact that germany had some of the most brilliant scientific minds of that era... And also concider the fact that most inventions(transport, protection, distruction) were made during/befire/after wartime... so it wouldn't have been such a wonder to acheive that goul... I'm sorry I was found amuzing...
 

Sorry if we made you feel like we were making fun of you. We were not, just stating facts, you are correct this is a "What if...?".
 
No problem... ... I was only kiddin... and I am aware of the facts...I only posted a What if... I'm sorry I made a fuss... I'ts not my style...
 
Probably... Given the right strategy... U-Boats are vulnerable to air attack... so if the convoys would have been supported by air they might have had a chance... From the air they would have been easily spotted, and sinking to avoid detection they wouldn't have been able to engage de convoy... My guess...
 
I think it would have made an impact at first but eventually the allies would have found a way to counter it and the convoys would once again come across the Atlantic. I think that in order to stop the convoys and win the Battle of the Atlantic, the Germans would have needed to have a larger surface fleet to accompany there U-boots. They needed for Schlachtschiffen, Panzerschiffen, and they needed to have Flugzeugtraegern from the very beginning.
