This is just silly.
There are many ways Germany could have won the war.
But with one single power economy drops like a stone, that and Hitler was a loon.
Ach, even in Normandy, if he let Rommel have his way the Panzer divisions would have faught off the invasion.
Hitler didn't like hearing generals arguing so he took command of the divisions, ironically "Der FÜhrer" woke up late on the day of the invasion, and by the time any divisions arrived the Allies already had the beach head.
Also, since Britian wasn't doing anything the Luftwaffe shouldn't have gone in, it was just silly.
Even if they did, Hitler's fury over his city being bombed turned him egomaniacal again. He decided to stop his strategic bombing (which was doing one helluva lot of damage), and turned to bombing cities (which didn't do much but kill people).
And then with the ME-262, he wanted it to be a light bomber and delayed the production just so he could have his way. And finally with the "King Tiger (Panzerkampfwagen VII B Konigstiger) he could have made 3 ME-262's PER King Tiger panzer.
Many problems.
Many, many, problems.
Though I have to admit I'm glad the Wermacht was lead by such a psycho.
