Blitzpig,what you're saying about industrial dispersion is right, but defining the 1940s RAF as a "mature organisation" is laughable: they operated a fleet that had been developed in WW1 times and operated on such standards,whilst the Luftwaffe had the precious advantage of the Spain Civil War,which created a lot of "experten",brought modifications to the aircraft and above all helped developing effective tactics. It took the RAF quite some time to catch up,and it wouldn't have gone far,hadn't the Americans intervened in '41.
