My first draft had the KPA hitting Kunsan with SCUDs carrying chemical warheads, but decided that the North Koreans wouldn't want to risk U.S. nuclear retaliation, so had them limit their chem attacks to ROK positions around Munsan.
Another reason that the Luftwaffe was unable to get may aircraft off the ground in the last few months of the war is because of 8th AF's bombing of German synthetic oil plants. If the Allies had shifted from bombing area targets to German oil production earlier, it likely could have shortened the war by a few weeks, at least. And German pilot attrition was unsustainably high. With little fuel for training, inexperienced replacements were easy prey for Allied fighter jocks.
