Lightbulb Re: Were the Germans secret weapons folly ?

The Germans did a lot of work on various nerve agents such as Sarin, Tabun, Soman, etc and plans for mass-production were well-advanced.

However, German Intelligence feared that the Allies also had plenty of production capability ( in fact, they didn't ) and also that the Allies ability to reach targets inside Germany would prove catastrophic in a 'tit-for-tat' scenario.

( So maybe the Bomber Offensive wasn't such a waste of effort after all.....)
