Re: RAF vs LW in 1940
Remember also that in non-democratic states, top brass only listen to what they want to hear. This was the case of Italy, Germany and Japan (and to a lesser extent SSSR), that grossly over-estimated their successes, giving a false assessment of the global situation. How many times was the RAF Fighter Command utterly wiped out of the sky during Summer/Fall 40? How many US aircraft-carriers were allegedly sunk in 1942 - more than the San Diego shipyards had ever built!
Well... it may not be San Diego but it makes no difference. |
