Default Re: What if GB and the USA didn't bomb industry?

Ditto. While Speer was able to perform miracles by keep production steady, the achilles heel was the fuel production. The planes, tanks and guns were available but without fuel, they were useless.

Without the bombing, fuel deliveries would be guaranteed and the fighting potential of the Wehrmacht much better resulting in a longer war time frame and more casualties for the Allies.
