A) Build the Me.262 earlier and in larger numbers
B) Focus on Great Britian instead fighting the war on two fronts with the Soviet Union
C) Get rid of Hitler!!! (He was insane, or at least I think so!)
D) Focus on producing the planes in larger numbers instead of constantly looking for ways to "improve" them.
A) That could have improved Germany's situation about the bombardments, but we have discussed it a lot over here and there was no real conclusion. Beside, that was not going to defeat the UK...
B) True. But as "Seelöwe" was very, very difficult you could have give all the job to Dönitz and that wouldn't have affected operations in the East.
C) It was because of Hitler that Germany won her first and most amazing victories. Beside, without Hitler you don't have WWII in Europe in the way we know it.
D) Actually, Mustang. Germany DID focuss its resources in building reliable planes already tested in combat in large quantities instead of developing more new models and aircraft. It was until summer 1943 that the development of new weaponry really took big importance.
