Had Hitler not pulled the Luftwaffe out of Russia he would have certainly won the Russian campaign. It was almost a done deal but then he pulled out most of his air support to sent to Africa and it gave the Russians one last chance which they took advantage of.

Hitler wanting Jet Bombers when he could have put Jet fighters to use early on. If Germany had made use of Jet fighters early on in large numbers rather than trying to build jet bombers he could have really slowed down the progress of the allied invasion and or bombing campaigns.
