You must excuse me if I am going over well trodden ground. I don't generally read or
take part in discussion about "what-if" scenarios.
I don't doubt that heavy bombers are better at strategical bombing than
medium/light bombers.
I just don't see where strategical bombing would be useful if England was invaded
and London was captured within a few months.
Pre-invasion the targets of LW bombing where small and/or scattered. Air bases,
stations specific factories, radar stations, etc.
Such targets can be destroyed just as well with medium bombers as heavy.
Generally the American and British AF did not use heavy bombers against such
targets.
Post-invasion the targets would be just as small and/or scattered. bridges, troop
concentrations, defenses, etc.
Again, not prime targets for heavy bombers.
