Re: A 'what if' question RE: LW vs 8th AF
A 'What If' that I have is if Steinbock had not been launched and the bomber force been built up on operations in the south or east , would then a rapid redeployment west have had a very serious effect on the Invasion. Another is that why did not the Luftwaffe attack US escorts at a much earlier stage of a raid when the P-51's were heavily loaded with fuel and ammo. loss of drop tanks would have affected long range potential. In such a case the Me110/410's SturmGroups etc. might have had more kills over Germany,
