they are famous because unlike the allies, they were more likely to use the battlefield to test immature tech. The germans had lots of ideas, most in paralel with other nations and most didn't had any real effect. The very idea of the 'hyper efficient axis' is just an excuse for the allies's defeats, after all 'we can look better if we were beaten by someone superior, right?' Hitler being an dumbass who made all the mistakes? also an myth, the generals were as flawed as Hitler, but of course they won't admit they did mistakes, of course Guderian will make him look like an tactic god instead of admiting it was Hitler who aproved his plans for France against the OKH. soviet forces with numerical superiority? only after an massive mobilization, the germans invaded with over 2 to 1 men in advantage. Alot of the game cannot be stealthed because of scripted events but the parts that can be stealthed are really fun without any minimap or detection meters on your hud you have to rely on what you see right in front of you. Order 227 being used everywere? also myth, most forces were killed after an 'trial' behind the lines.

Relember the idea of weaponless soviets making human waves? all myth, Halder, Manstein, Guderian and others made it.

Nah, if anything our vision of the war is based on the german propaganda, more specifically, Halder and others, who after the war were turned into historians by the US government and created the vision we have of the eastern front. I recomend Wages of Destruction, an great book about the german economy at the time and it's problems and don't get me started on the oil supply that would be unable to support offensives without exports from Venezuela and US. No, on the oposite, german economy was at verge of implosion, Hitler was printing money to suport the war industry and if they didn't won a war, they would colapse. ' unlike others they didnt rely on the war to recover their economy. No, the recovery started already by Weimar, specially by Hjalmar Schacht. ' recovered from the great depression faster than any other country ' Braunn himself didn't started from zero, being inspired by Oberth. Rocketry started decades before the nazi party even being made, with Hermann Oberth (imperial german), Konstantin Tsiolkovsky (imperial russian), Robert Esnault-Pelterie (french) and Robert Goddard (american) being the fathers of rocketry. Maybe, it depends on what defines one, 'proto' helicopters started decades before, the first operational was indeed german, but Sikorsky that made the first on full scale production.

The first was made by an hugarian, the german army only adopted it. Based on Maxwell's and Hertz's studies from almost 40 years before, they didn't even made the first microwave relay.
