Luftwaffe Shifts To Defensive Fighter Focus In Europe
German air power has switched from offensive bombing to defense as Allied raids intensify. Bomber plants convert to fighters and night fighters, notably Ju 88s, while Me 109 and a potential improved Focke Wulf lead new fighter production. Analysts estimate monthly output could rise to 4000 planes if factories endure. Luftwaffe fighter numbers are spread thin across France, Germany, and fronts, with bomber forces concentrating on Russia and limited western reserves.
