What if prior to WW2 Kevlar was invented and known to everyone like nylon was? I find it an interesting technology POD because of it's varied uses beyond armor:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevlar#Applications
How might it influence technologies in WW2 is all sides have access to the lightweight, high strength material? Just the armor portion allows for all sorts of applications, up to and including lightweight aircraft armor and potentially even other components. Same with personal armor and for ground vehicles. Not sure about how cost effective for tires it would be though. How might we see it being used?
