In this Alternate History Drachinifel, Military Aviation History and me look at the possibility and chances of an "early Afrika Korps". We look at a lot of data, the different sides and several aspects, like Malta, submarines, oil, different approaches, etc.
Of course, it gets overly complicated, although we simplified quite a lot, e.g., we left out most of the political aspects. Additionally, you gain quite some insights in what was going on historically.
