Alternate History: If Germany won WWII.

It is. Also, I forget what the bomb load of the Heinkel He-177 Greif was meant to be, but that was another stab they had at a heavy bomber.

By the way, if you want to talk about heavy bombers, we had the Avro Lancaster over here - versions of which dropped the “Grand Slam” U-boat-pen spoiler… weighing in at a cool 10 tons (22,000lb). On t’other hand, they had nothing like the range of the B29.

Trust me. Speaking as someone who does work with them… (Pacifica, Vision, C230)…

Speaking as someone who knows the Germans promised they wouldn’t, and then took over upper management so hard there’s a stockholder lawsuit…

Speaking as someone who knows Daimler is… much bigger than Chrysler was…

Germans took over.
