Yeah it was their problem back in 1944... The only reason in 1945 wasn't much of issue was that Germany was in rapid collapse. It one of the reason why the British has only on Brigade designated as Air Assault/Airmobile operation with two of the three regular Battalions of the Para Regiment.

It's always been the damocles sword of light units. They can hit hard and hit fast but can not hit for long.
The Germans proved the effectiveness during Blitzkrieg because they where able to get regular troops in to consolidate and expand the gains made by airbourne troops. It's telling that when the German's started to lose momentum the fallschirmjager where turned into foot infantry units. I think we'd see the same with both NATO and WP airbourne assets, gradualy they will become foot infantry used as "fire brigades" to try and blunt enemy breakthroughs in much the same way the fallschirmjager where used in Normandy and Italy.
