Now I know this was explored to some extent in the "The Death of Göring and the Victory of the Luftwaffe" timeline, while an interesting timeline in it self I disagree with quite a bit of it, particularly the impacts it would have on the German rearmament as Hjalmar Schacht had problems with the rapidness of it, which was why Göring was appointed Plenipotentiary of the Four-year plan.

So hypothetically speaking say Göring dies from a disease, accident or through some other non-violent means sometime in -36 or -37, who takes over what? The most important would be:

President of the Reichstag

Reichminister of Aviation

Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe

Plenipotentiary of the four-year plan


And what would the effects be of those who have taken over?

For instance if Wolfram von Richthofen takes over as C-i-C of LW, that would kill the Ju-87 as he thought it was a waste of resources. That and the sacking of Ernst Udet, as v.Richthofen detested Udet.

Would Fritz Todt be able to take over at that point as PP of the 4YP ? A sort of proto- ministry of arms and ammunition? And how would he do at it at this point?
