Re: A 'what if' question RE: LW vs 8th AF
In the ''Blitzkrieg" way that is working to kill planes on earth level, that's give you an immediate advantage on later stage of the war, where force ratio was to 10/1 or 15/1, that means german hv to kill 10 folds more allied planes than their own losses, you hv prob. better things to do.
Steinbock was a complete failure, to add that bombing by night was maybe not the right idea, probably the whole brit. night-offensive gave not material results matching the investment .
Gisela was also partly a failure as the gains, some few shot-down bombers ,were far to compensate the loss a highly trained crews, 1 month of gisela action would hv annihilated the complete german night-fighter force.
