Country:  | Dude, the realm of possibilities for the "What Ifs" catagory go far beyond the insurmountable permutations that normal mortal men can fathom...
Maybe the Bottle-Nosed Dolpfin could, but not our simple and underused brain...
Every poster here could name a "what if" every 2 minutes for 3 months straight...
And then ur brain would suffer a terrible aneurysm and you would be left wondering "What if I didnt think about "What Ifs"....."

Country:  | Like what if the Germans had produced the He 280, FW 187 and the HE 100 instead of the Me 109 & 110 and the Me 262?
Or had pushed on at Dunkirk landing just behind the ships carrying the English? Or had kept bombing the airfields?
Its endless

| I think the Fw-187 would have been a better option than the Me-110.
