Or better those morons like you that cannot accept the fact that
Germany is the size of just 1 US state and took on the world and was
winning half the time.


And losing the other half. Overunning Belgium was no
great trick and Norway was no super power. They managed
to beat France to be sure but the first time the vaunted Luftwaffe
met a technically equal but smaller force it was stopped dead.

By late 1940 Britain alone was outproducing Germany in terms
of most major military systems despite a much smaller population
and economy, Then the Fuhrer attacked Russia - STOOPID


Then after defeat, your VICTORIOUS and SUPERIOR
armies raped the entire German nation for all of its technology
ensuring postwar victories without any real effort on your part to
develop them yourself... in areas so unimportant as say... aviation
and space technology... just to name two!


The USA had better jet aircraft in 1945 than Germany did
The late model Meteor was faster than the Me-262
and far more reliable. The Germans never did get their
engines to work for more than 25 hours while the
Rolls Royce engines in the Meteor were good for 2000

Germany never managed to build a succesful heavy bomber,
the USA had 3 types in service and the B-36 under development

The NACA in the USA was alreay working on swept wing
technology in 1945

Von Braun acknowledged that all his work was built on
the foundations laid by Goddard.

The rocket engines used in the X planes post war were designed by
Goddard's team and were far BETTER and more reliable
than those in the Me-163

Then there is the fiasco that was the German nuclear project.

The myth of German technical superiority is just that.
