(13,536 posts)7. This won't be like WWII. When the Russians started building up their air force and fighting
back against the Germans effectively in 1943, the Germans started hitting their airfield really hard. Recon photos showed the runways repaired and aircraft replaced overnight. They won't be able to build aircraft fast enough this time.
