Small Scale Military Headquarters

wondering how many folks here have purchased the Bell bird ?

Quite frankly, all other things aside, I've often wondered what would have happend had the Germans solely focused on Russia (you know, the whole defeating Communism, etc) from the get-go and left Western Europe alone... would they have succeeded and would they have gotten some of the other European...

well, the invasion of Russia itself wasn't the undoing of Germany. They very, very nearly succeeded. As premised in the alternate history above, if the invasion had taken place early May instead of late June, then Moscow would probably have fallen before the worst of the winter weather set in that ...

Since all this is speculation on this Topic...had Hitler not made the insane descision to attack Russia thus ruining his Army and the Luftwaffe the D-Day invasion would have been another Dunkirk on a massive scale but this time no escape for the Allies

yea I'm lookin there Snake...nothin so far..

Hey Folks- I'm looking to buy a Hobby Master Die Cast 1/72 F-4 Phantom in the Thunderbird scheme...anybody ? All sold out on websites...

maybe they would of used 2 Bf 109 size or smaller swastikas that sat same area maybe closer to end of manta ray tail on each side of of centerline which would put them out of harms way from engine blast.... I reckon....TJJ

it is very possible the Go 229 would have been unsuited for combat. Stability problems could have been considerable and potentially unsolvable with 1945 technology. Flying wings which are just intended to fly straight and level have had stability problems and the b-2 needs a bank of computers makin...

top of vehicle that was re-painted due to sun damage to the clear...taken from several 109 schemes...TJJ http://community.webshots.com/user/VEXDEC

Agreed Aferg... I think low viz would be more in tune with what the Luftwaffe would use at that time in the war... but then again solid black swastikas and black outline only underwing balkankreuzes would be appropriate as well...TJJ

Yes Barkhorns Double Chevron 5 Christl is a must have as well...I think I'm gonna do a Custom Convert into his Eagle

with the Factory Codes still visible on this bird I would agree... 10,000 Rubles for his head would fit in with the Rise of the Black Devil

Hey Jnewboy...99% positive no Karaya or Usch Hearts were on this particular bird...

Agreed Ferg...

Hey Jnewboy- I tend to agree that more often than not Hartman would have removed wing cannons due to the fact that he liked to get in real close before even lettin loose with his nose guns....alot of time within a hundred meters before lettin loose his guns in which stated in doing this he was taken...
