During 1942, according to information from England, about 1,000 attacks were flown on German territory: including 17 heavy attacks with a quantity of more than 500 tons of bombs and incendiaries. In 1944, this figure increased tremendously to about 1.6 million tons. The German arms industry was not critically affected by these attacks, despite the heavy bombing. In December of 1944, the monthly production of German weaponry reached its absolute peak. Gradually, the main battle lines moved ever closer to the Reich. No German city was secure from attacks from the air as everything was within reach of the bombers.
