How would the war change if most B-29s went to the European theatre instead of the Pacific?
Short answerEurope would gain new long-range attacks, while the Pacific war effort would slow.
NotesRedirecting most B-29s would create long-range bombing opportunities in Europe. The possible effects remain conditional because the passage does not select targets or a campaign plan. The same aircraft would no longer be available in comparable numbers for the Pacific offensive. European gains would therefore come with a slower Pacific war effort.
