Interesting and informative. Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better understand what/whom the orator was describing. Special thanks to veteran pilots sharing personal information/combat experiences making this documentary more authentic and possible. Yes disillusioned/self serving/egotistic Goring. Refused to consider Luftwaffe general Adolf Galland 's advice from 1943 onwards. Slowly decimated planes & experienced pilots. He flew to ME -262 fighter jets. Fortunately for the allies fuel & pilots pilots were in critically short supply. He told off both Hitler 😈 & Goring 😈 on several occasions. Blaming them for indiscriminate loss of pilots.
According to historian Dave Holland, Goring did not want to go to war in Sept 1939. Militarily, Germany was not yet ready. Monthly aircraft production and pilot training was low. During the Battle of Britain, Britain was producing almost twice as many fighters as Germany by August 1940. When Germany attacked Russia, the Luftwaffe strength was only 75-80% of what it had been in Sept 1939.
Correct, in spite of early "easy" victories over unprepared foes, Germany was in no way ready for the war Hitler got them into. Without meaning to beat a dead horse, USSR and USA were two bites too big for Germany to swallow. Failure to deal with Britain was a big military error. 😱
I just got back into the hobby after building a lot as a kid in the 80's. Back then in the states it was Monogram and Revell, that was basically it. I think 99% of my kits then were Monogram. I heard a lot of good about Tamiya and saw them in catalogs, but never built one.
The Anglo-American alliance was and remains imperative. Economically, Technologically, Culturally, Politically, Ideologically, and even perhaps Spiritually.
Germany would have won the war if it 1. Developed long range 4 engine bombers lime the British Lancaster and the American B-17 or B-24. 2. Not attacked the Soviet Union in Operation Barbarossa and thus wasted men and munitions- much like the Russians are doing in Ukraine!
Please stop acting like you were alone the British empire and all her colonies like Australia, Indians etc... resistance fighters and Soviet Union made out of Multiple nations such as Russia and Ukraine and China with many other nations Participated by the way you are losing the 2 front war in Ukraine and Israel right now the second Iran and Hezbola strike it's over.
World War 2 was the deadliest conflict man has ever fought and possibly will ever fight. I remember reading that Poland lost 22% of its total population (soldiers and non combatants), British fighter pilots sent as replacements for those lost would often be shot down and killed ten minutes after landing at their new posting ( and even before the commanding officer or their squadron buddies knew their names) and cornered and isolated Japanese soldiers took to eating the flesh of their dead comrades when supplies ran out..and that is not even including the Holocaust and the Atomic bombing. TERRIBLE!!!!
Not only japanese did cannabolism it were the Soviet civilians particularly of the then Leningrad who did it for almost three years while under siege of German army .. i had the opportunity to hear stories from war witnesses.. it was like that today we cook your dead child and three days later it LL be our child s turn who is about to die with hunger... moreover it is worth noticing that nobody talk about the worst living conditions of the Germans surrounding the Leningrad.. they spent three arctic winters in trenches outside the city .. in such a low temperature and facing snow storms outside in open under constant counter attacks of russians was what can be called at least totally brutal conditions ... Residents of Leningrad were at least living inside buildings though without heat and electricity but their opponents were living completely in open and it is to be remembered that all the winters of world war 2 were unusually colder especially the winter of 1941-42 ... Due to these inhumane condition to live in German soldiers of army group north called it eternal war of the poor men ... At the end it were the tougher ones who survived and won ... I met a girl whose grandmother who was a young lady then died during Leningrad siege because after one year of hunger one day she received sufficient food and ate it all at lunch and died due to the fact that her body can't handle her full stomach and she died ...
The blunder was attacking Russia stright after fighting the British and loosing in the air. Many of their best pilots lost before the Russian invasion. That was a big blunder. ✌️

When it’s your only force, it’s strategic as well…. No one in Germany had planned for what we now deem strategic. Doesn’t mean the luftwaffe wasn’t part of the overall strategy of the war, not just for short term tactical aspects. There was literally no need for a “long distance” strategic arm for the luftwaffe. The Wehrmacht and luftwaffe literally tore apart any anti air capabilities the opposition had, and until the tide turned on Germany there was no need for anything other than short range offense and minor defensive forces.
Disillusioned Goring tried to do an impossible task. Causing massive catastrophic pilot and plane ✈ losses. Ace general Adolf Galland argued with him about his recklessness.
All these co called great german aces, most of them only shot down biplanes or slow first gen monoplanes, desperate nations throwing youngsters up who had no idea how to fight or fly, it wasnt till they met the RAF that they were found wanting, happened in Russia too, as soon as the red air force starting making decent aircraft, and had both RAF and ASAAF trainers, germany lost the war, they had NO answer to it, and even when fighter production in Germany was at its peak, they had nobody to fly them, so Germany went through what they had inflicted, having to throw youngsters up with no experience, flying outmatched aircraft.

Great documentary thanks for posting

Dave Holland . . . hmm . . . is he historian James Holland's twin brother?
The Soviets proved that once air-supremacy is achieved, Artillery is 'The King of Battle'.
the RAF says different !
The Russians won on the eastern front due to Hitlers arrogance !

Once a 'United Ireland' joins us - WE ARE UNBEATABLE.

spitfire bleeding ammo, big factor it did not have
2-B repetitive. The person who design it, obviously
ask a simple question
Intro longer than WWII
🤣🤣🤣
"No country could fight a war on two fronts..." The US says, "Hold my beer"...
Germany would have won the war if it
1. Developed long range 4 engine bombers lime the British Lancaster and the American B-17 or B-24.
2. Not attacked the Soviet Union in Operation Barbarossa and thus wasted men and munitions- much like the Russians are doing in Ukraine!

I just read all the comments & the intro’s still going! 😂 Great video though! 😎👍🏽
Just choose a point to enter in the line at the bottom.
Saw new vision of the planes so that assists

45:07...Its actually a German pilot firing as heard from the sound of the 30 mm Mauser kannone known as the "Jackhammer".
Kinda long intro
It’s amazing!
26:10...The German fighter pilots wearing cartridge's at the top of their boots. Anyone know what they were for? Perhaps Air-Sea rescue?.....
👍🏻®️🎥🎞️
Too long title credits (intro).
9:58... THE Bomber shown is a Heinkel 177 Griffon. It did not come into service during the invasion of France. However, good documentary...
33:17 Italian Camproni experimental jet, not Luftwaffe.....
CaCagal...WW2……straight Lagi....which easy naman...tayo lang po nagpapalasing o nagpapalasing Luftwaffe scoppe? magsearch muna baka ibang luftwaffe..
A lot of music, not much about the topic!

Luftwaffe was a tactcal force not a strategic force,still tried to do an impossible job.

Les plus grands as était allemands, pourquoi ? Il volaient jusqu'à l’épuisement et la mort
true purpose was to attack?
I wonder Y a cat has claws
The footage is great but can’t seem to stay interested. Seems slow
It's full of great technical info and isn't overdramatized. Just concentrate harder lol.
I could planned that shit better. And i sucked at command and conquer
You really do...I fought against you in Iwo Jima.
Ohh You God
