I second that. I have books at home that show blueprints and partially assembled planes like these. The allies won the war by shutting down Germany's resources, not by technological means.
Germany also was the first to develop synthetic oil, I believe.
They also pioneered the use of NOS. Late in the war, the allied planes were outclimbing the Messerschmitts which is a huge advantage in a dogfight. A 3-4 second shot of NOS evened the playing field but you could only do it once or you'd fry the engine. Something about pistons turning into molten lumps...
