I'm a little lost as to why we wanted to do that.

Hell, the Soviets made a diesel powered high altitude bomber....Wonder how fast it took for that fuel to gell at altitude.

THeir fighters were the fastest at the time. Every time we went for a bombing rraid they would shoot our planes down. But this was getting towards the end of WW2!

Russians were shooting down our bombers toward the end of WWII? Man with allies like that who needed the Germans shooting at us to.

Take that with a BIG grain of salt, cryhavoc.
