I would tend to agree, but how do we really know? There are some acknowleged issues with the A-5, A-8 and the G-14, but for the most part the LW aircraft are correct IMO. The person I was responding too prefers to use hyperbole instead of finding facts to back up the frequent outlandish accusations of bias against everything Axis. The point of this thread was, the LW planes did perform poorly at the high alts of USAAF bomber missions, that is undeniable.

I'd ask you to back that up, but I'm sure you will refuse. Now run along back to neverland.

You are of course aware that they lost the war.

In this war, the Axis are winning the air war, however, their bombing damage has been minimal. Allies are winning the strategy war with stragetic bombing.

Read the MOTD.  I stocked the rear fields with 110Gs early this morning.
