The Japanese were impressed with the Junkers JU-390. It could fly from the German Bases in Odessa to the Japanese held fields in China. Starting in late 1943 the Junkers JU-390 would deliver secret jet engines and other valuable weapons and on the return flight carry exotic metals, uranium, and even rubber. Also this is the way Japanese and German officers carried Top Secret information. In March 1945 a Junkers JU-390 flew to Tokyo by flying over the North Polar regions. This is verified by Albert Speer who wrote about this flight. Anna Kreisling was in Japan at the time and flew back to Germany on a different Junkers JU-390. Japan was working on a Nuclear bomb and the Junkers JU-390 was the bomber they wanted to use the Atomic Bomb on Los Angeles and Hawaii.

The paratroopers main mission was to cut off German reinforcements. The two main areas where paratroopers were needed was Caen and Carentan. Carentan was taken by U.S. 101st and 82nd airborne divisions. The critical area in carentan was St. Mere Eglise. Caen was taken by the British 6th Airborne Division. The critical area here was Pegasus Bridge, which was necessary to keep intact for the allied offensive.
Yes, to a considerate exstet they were.
German paratroopers ("fallschirmjaeger") were used on Crete, as part of the campaign in Greece. They suffered such heavy losses in the drop that Hitler never again permitted their use as parachute landing troops, and they fought the rest of the war as infantry. German paratroopers were part of the German Air Force (the Luftwaffe), not the Army (Wehrmacht). The Germans also made a successful glider landing attack on the Belgian fortress of Eben Emael in 1940.
