Germany lost that is the point here. IT would not have mattered if they had
had mach 2 aircraft, they still would have lost. The Nazi Panzer units had
better tougher tanks, but they could not defeat the out numbering allied
tank force. Sure the Sherman tanks were weaker in armor and armament, but
they out numbered the panzers. Same thing in the air, and after the
successes of the air campaign, Germany had no combat trained pilots any
more. the last days of the third Reich was filled with doubt and indecisions
by a madman who couldn't trust his own generals to get the job done. like
the roman empire and napoleon, they simply outreached their empire. and
could not defend it anymore.

Of course this is my view, and you can disagree with it anyway you choose.
