Personally I think the creation of SAER, while logical, was a bad thing as it seriously upsets the balance in Wesworld and Japan would certainly look to all kinds of things to restore the balance as much as possible (One reason why Yamato ended up a lot bigger than it used to be).

That preaty clear looking at Japans encyclopedia, having every toy under the sun...

I think SAER was a logical responce to an alliance that virtually controls all of the Pacific, the majority of Asia and threatens/intimidates the remaining nations that are not part of it,
Quoted
in addition to meddling in as many South American and European affairs as they possibly can
Quoted
Unfortunately I don't buy the alliance as an excuse to advance as many technological inovations as possible, I chalk that up to power gaming.

Well, that is your opinion. We threaten and intimidate because we feel threatened and intimidated... uhm... disregard that comment.

Meddling? Us?? We would never do such a thing! We would not dare!

Easy for you to say. You're big and got many big buddies. You're not in the same position, you big mean Atlantean bully!
Yeah. Alliance is not the proper reason. 'Gigantic Evil Steamroller Alliance that will flatten you 1,000,000 times over' is better...

Yes I'm sure Armenia, Azerbaijan, Afganistan and an emaciated Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are VERY fearsome foes.
Quoted
Last time I checked SATSUMA had 2 nations with some of the largest populations in the world
Quoted
Is that why you keep posting "Atlantean Bombers"? Which, I should note, I really don't understand, seeing as Atlantis isn't a member of SAER, has no obvious conflicts with Japan or for that matter any SATSUMA nation.
Quoted
SAER didn't have to form; it was driven by SATSUMA's aggression and paranoia. SATSUMA is directly responsible for the creation of SAER.
Quoted
I thought we'd agreed to keep jet technology on it's historical timeline?
Quoted
Which makes one wonder, how many good pilots does Mexico have left?
Well OTL's Mexico's Aircraft industry of the time was actually pretty advanced. However, other factors prevented any of those planes from ever entering production.Quoted

Actually, I was thinking of something else.

Ah sure... and I suppose that everyone in those two nations are soldiers. If that were the case, then I won't argue about that and if not... well, I won't argue about that either.

Uhmmm...

Atlantean Bombers? I don't know what you are talking about. Don't you mean Spaghetti bombers?

But what made us aggressive and paranoid? Exactly. The nations that formed SAER.

Pulsejets are comparatively simple, but designing one straight up from nothing is a different matter. It took the Germans 5 years between 1935 and 1940 to build static test engines. Work was temporarily stopped due to problems in 1941 but more improvements were made by Schmidt with a view to increasing thrust at high speed. Argus had their own program which had test flights in 1941 and then a number of other aircraft.
