    WI: NACA Modified P-38

    I’m also musing during early summer 1941 Malta Campaign, an inexperienced but overconfident RAF P-38 Pilot officer tried to dogfight with a Fiat CR.42 Falco and got shot down (or badly shot up). The story passed back across the Pond.

    IOTL USMC F4Fs were send because there were guard by Marine, if P-38s sent instead, which meant "Lady Lex" and "The Big E" would stay at Pearl...

    Perhaps mixture of Curtiss and Boeing@Wichita options? P-40s' production numbers dramatic dropped off between 1941-2 indeed not a good things. Agreed on Draonis' view on Martin B-26, not produced them mean North American needed to increase B-25s' production, with the price of less Mustangs...

    Watched Latest episode of Unauthorized History of the Pacific War Podcast (1:35:58 onward) earlier of the week, turned out OTL McGuire's end might be as honorable as EverKing's ATL.

    WI: NACA Modified P-38

    1. I'm afraid not, without extra reinforcement: RAF 261 Squadron served at Malta between Aug. 1940 to May 41 with just Hurricane I (which explain a lot why Me 109Es of 7./JG 26 [which left for North Africa on early June IOTL] ruled the sky). Detachment of Fleet Air Arm 806 Naval Air Squadron...

    WI: NACA Modified P-38

    Given Churchill's obsession on "Soft underbelly of Europe", wouldn't some of the RAF's Lightlings may end up at Greece? But either ways, IMHO they might not be numerous enough to impact Unternehmen Sonnenblume and Greece Campaign. Also, since Malta among one of the refueling stops, and between...

    How about Suez Crisis*? *Searching both of the threads for Nasser, without luck. Perhaps you mentioned him subtlety without naming name?

    Most likely the Red Army would still cross the border anyway, under pretext of "enforcing Potsdam Declaration" (USSR was member of UN) ITTL. Vast majority of Manchukuo was Han Chinese, Manchus were even outnumbered by Koreans, legally it belong to Republic of China before Mukden Incident, most...

    Given what Li Ao did after Taiwan democration, he became ATL Chinese head of state gave chill down my spine. Being Fortunate Son of Imperial Japan cozy Formosa Family, Lien Chen won KMT presidential nomination and won the election as well also felt ASB.

    The chance of Patten also be the “Last Governor “ ITTL was petty low though. Most likely still be David Clive Wilson, Sinophile Foreign Office Mandarin who remained till Handover.

    IOTL 1950 qualification, Burma, Indonesia and the Philippines all withdrew before the draw, so India qualified automatically, ITTL if RoC was in, beating India (which won the Asian Game gold medal next year IOTL) in a two legs playoff wasn't impossible. Then IOTL 1954, only Japan and South Korea...

    Italia '90 addendum, and revision (in red words) (If @Looper, @Duel and @Colonel Zoidberg do not raise objections, consider it the new canon.) Still the most Avant-Garde World Cup mascot design ever. Still the the best World Cup theme song ever. (Complete song could be found here.) June 8...

    A little more expression of personal feeling (apart from this): That midnight (GMT +8 at my timezone) was the first PTSD of my almost thirty-four years as a serious football fans. Even I'm not intended to change it (would plan to erase one OTL infamous incident though), the former ATL outcome...
