    "Rebuilding their industry" would've been a pretty tall order, given the attention West Allied strategic bombers lavished upon it and the blunt fact Germany was seriously short of many vital raw materials...

    Ed: Oh, and Kraxis ? I was really thinking more in terms of what the Allied air arm did to the very infrastructure the Germans had to use to move things around, like from the home front to the battlefront. Plus the likes of fuel and ammo dumps and what-have-you (halfway to the war the German mechanized forces were struggling with chronic fuel shortages to begin with). Compared to the hassle all that gave the Germans the harassement by the ground-attack craft was a probably minor issue.

    Not that having to dodge airstrikes ever improved any tank's fighting ability, mind you.

    "Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."
