Austrian fraction
#16

I believe the Austrian air force was reconstituted a few years prior to the Anschluss, in 1935 or '36 or such. That meant it didn't have much time to organize or build up. But it did exist in 1938, small and dwarfed when it came to confronting Germany.

I know it had Ju-52's and some biplanes, also probably German. some Ju-86's and Italian Cr-32, Cr-20's and Caproni 133's.

Umm you do, Its called the German Reich! I must say I never much understood the whole Austrian German differance.

Man, i just have to tell you, you do *not know* what you are saying with this sentence.
Be very careful with stuff like that regarding other nations (if that is not just you wanting to provoke other people)
This sentence is absolutely no go for any European democrat.

other than that, I would also second the move to ask Gaston to include austria into his nations Mod.
even the DDR / GDR is there. so surely not limited to WWII contenders.

Well the Anschluss had to be ratified by vote and even historians do not argue that the majority of Austrians (Over 90%) voted for the union.
Not trying to provoke anybody just stating the facts.

Quote:While historians concur that the result itself was not manipulated, the voting process was neither free nor secret. Officials were present directly beside the voting booths and received the voting ballot by hand (in contrast to a secret vote where the voting ballot is inserted into a closed box). In some remote areas of Austria the referendum on the independence of Austria on 13 March had been held despite the Wehrmacht's presence in Austria (it took up to three days to occupy every part of Austria). For instance, in the village of Innervillgraten a majority of 95% voted for Austria's independence.
