Love to see these production films. It's always interesting to see how things were built manually, before the age of computers. Just amazed by the amount of wires running through the Ju88, seen at 0:18. That looks like an electricians nightmare. Incredible skill levels these guys had, putting so many together at once. These appear to be Ju88 A-4's (twin rear facing MG's at the back of the cockpit), rolling out of the factory. The aircraft seen from 1:49 onwards are from Kampfgeschwader 51. Awesome footage as always!

My grandfather was 17 when he has to join the Luftwaffe technical corps in Braunschweig to become a technician for the Me 109 and 110. He was on the war from 1940 on until 1945..he died a few years ago at the age of 94. I was a few jears earlier in an technical museum where these planes were... He still knew every part of it how it works etc. It was fascinating... I can tell you a very nice story, when the war was over he was in a train to get shipped to the US as a pow.. The train stopped in Mannheim where a big railway-cross was. However, my grandfather told the guards in the train (as a Luftwaffe technician he was probably not seen as a very bad guy) well, he told the Americans when the train stood there in Mannheim that he lived in Heidelberg 10 km away and there is is home and family... The Americans opened the door and said "good luck, buddy" and let him out and he walked home..as I live in Heidelberg too, he showed me the exact track and place where the train was waiting and where he was let out... He loved the Americans his whole life and when went many times to the german - American friendship market every year in Heidelberg ate Burgers thrown American style footballs etc... OK, that was the story of my grandpa Robert... I miss him

@Flippernuts-hi1bp Why would the Allies need one plane to do all of those things when they had specialized planes for the job? Why would they have the A-26 do night fighting when there was the P-61 Black Widow which was specifically designed for the role? Making medium and heavy bombers capable of (shallow) dive bombing which was rarely used in practice greatly compromised German designs and was the direct cause of the failure of the HE-177 heavy bomber. The A-26 had a career that spanned into the 90s which also included counter insurgency, aerial mapping, and aerial firefighting.

If you compare this operation to film of B-24 production line at Willow Run, it's like a joke. Willow Run brings each plane to the workers, many of whom are women. (Ju-88 video is ALL male, most of whom could have gone to the front to fight instead of passing wiring harnesses through tight spots.) Willow Run used the world's largest jig to pump out airplane wings like they were Model T body panels. Willow Run was built for speed and precision assembly of mass produced parts. There are no grinders or lathes for fitting parts in Willow Run films. Also, in the Ju-88 film, we see the workers line up, then approach the aircraft. Willow Run ran continuously, no pause of the lines for anything and no bombing attacks to disrupt production. Germany had little chance after Hitler declared war on the USA.

Not sure if the jets would have won the war even when the Germans would have had enough ressources to produce them in big numbers. I more over think they would have stretched the war in lenght at most since Uncle Sam and Ivan had basically unlimited ressources unlike Hans I could be wrong though, I'm not educated in the topic ressources or anything related to that, I think, or maybe I haven't understood the comment due my lack of English knowledge.

A myth. There are lots af reasons why it wasn't practical for the Germans to have a heavy bomber fleet. In any case, strategic bombing has limitations; intelligence (which the Wehrmacht was notoriously bad at) and logistics. One type of weapon doesn't win a war either. It was far more complicated than that

The Ural Bomber project was DOA. The B-29 could barely fly a mission from Kyiv to the Urals and back with any measurable payload. Soviets would have futher dispersed production and added lots more AA guns and fighter interceptors. Tell me, German strategic bombing advocates, what do you cut from German war industry to allow the Ural Bomber to go through? The B-29 project was the single most expensive American military expense of the war, 1.5X the Manhattan Project.
