The Germans had the weapons to win before 1945.....but they didn't use them to their 'best' advantage.

But then again nobody had ever used them before and its only after the event that you figure out what the best use was....

Luckily for us.

PS Both the Arado 246 (?) a twin engine jet bomber and the Horten FLying wing (AKA B" in 1944/45) will be displayed at the Udvar Hazy Centre at Dulles international in the near future.

Check out that hi-tech stuff, even compared to the B-29.

Also just to nit pick the MoF in Seattle has the only survinig M-12 aircraft. Its version of the SR-71 predecessor the A-12, modified to carry a D-21 drone and the launch control officer in the second rear seat.....

A12 are to SR-71 what early long hoods are to post 74 911, lighter and more numble but pretty much the same...
