Скачать или смотреть The Escort Assumption That Slowly Undermined the Luftwaffe in WWII

This World War II documentary explores the fatal assumption that slowly undermined the Luftwaffe: the belief that Allied fighters could not escort bombers deep into Germany. From 1943 to 1944, German planners continued to rely on outdated range limits, even as drop tanks and the P-51 Mustang erased those boundaries. Through immersive narration, real pilots, commanders, and air battles, the film shows how long-range fighter escorts transformed the air war over Europe. As American Mustangs hunted German fighters from takeoff to landing, the Luftwaffe lost not only aircraft, but its most experienced pilots. This documentary reveals how a single strategic assumption delayed adaptation, accelerated pilot attrition, and helped secure Allied air superiority before D-Day. A story of technology, doctrine, and human cost—where distance stopped protecting Germany’s skies.
