Salt dome - Subsurface, Geology, Formation: In general, salt structures associated with folds have been linked with the same forces that caused the folding. Salt structures in areas without any apparent folding, however, puzzled early geologists and gave rise to a bewildering series of...

Interesting - are you referring to specific incidents in pre-war Germany and if so which ones?
No. I am referring to the Japanese attempt to duplicate VHC without nickel.
(A) where is a reference to High-temperature steel/gunmetal alloy from the link? and (B) you might want to dig a bit further than a Reddit post
It goes directly to refining oil.
Again, your using some sort of ethical calculus as a substitute for economic limitations. Allied analysis after the war showed German synthetic fuels were just as good as what the Allies were using - just not in nearly the quantity. That's an economic bottleneck.
Night vision equipment is no-big deal. The US stuff worked. How did the German stuff do? NTG.
So as long as you don't think the contribution is significant you have no trouble with Nazis being technically competent. Got it.
Again, so long as you don't think the contribution is significant you have no trouble with Nazis being technically competent. Either they have the competence to camoflauge their proposed pipelines or they lack it and thus should not proceed with a project that would endanger their oil supplies. Choose.
So Nazis assembled functional night vision equipment and had the competence to enact effective camoflauge on par with the USSR of the 1950s but they are now technically incompetent...because you say so?
We have had this discussion. Karman knew his work, and found it "interesting". Karman worked with him and was CONTEMPORARY at the Max Plank Institute so I would say pre-date is sheer hogwash. Volta Conference 1935? Remember?
You are free to say whatever you like, NASA recognizes Busemann as progenitor if the idea.

The DUTCH inspired the Americans to investigate the snort in 1942. We have also discussed the tile question before. The Germans never solved it. The six boats they tried it out on either were killed, surrendered or own goaled and DIED.
Please keep on topic and respond to posts as written. We were not discussing the snorkel, we were discussing GUPPY.
Have discussed this. Not going in circles. Moving on.
So you're unable to give a response. Noted.
Both were liars and war criminals. So why not compare them with another liar and war criminal, Fuchida?
Economics and their effects on Nazi production, McPherson, are worthy topics for your further reading and consideration. Nazis lacked the industrial capacity and often the raw ingredients to manufacture weaponry (especially advanced weaponry/engines/etc.) in quantities needed.
Or fight under the arctic ice cap; Zulu versus GUPPY. Google it.
Type XXI German submarines keep coming up as inspiration for both. Not a coincidence.
Russians shooting Stalin is morally acceptable if it saves 9 million Russian lives. He was a criminal by THEIR laws.
Had the Nazis overrun Russia I shudder to think how many more would have died. And your apparent agreement with my post about your finding the murder of Soviet leadership acceptable to keep the USSR in the war as needed even had Japan invaded from the East and Moscow been threatened with utter annihilation is also noted.
Incompetent country. Kazahk Red Army draftees could not even speak Russian. Navajos and Japanese-Americans could speak English. It is immoral not to educate your citizenry so they can function in your society.
Yet they proved a competent global adversary to the interests of the United States for roughly half a century. Thankfully American interests did not dismiss their capacities so casually, had those in positions of power and influence done so we might be posting in Russian right now.
