From what I know, after the Crete invasion, in really special and rare ocasions the Fallschirmjäger actually paradropped. After Crete they we're consired Elite Infantry units and not Paratroopers anymore, they even had tank hunters like the StuG in their unit composition.

The Eastern front saw infrequent tactical and special operation airdrops, actually. But this is a coding limitation, as this game doesn't have paratroopers built in or ejecting pilots like Men Of War's series entries.

That and it was still, fairly rare. Strategic air drops were entirely banned after Crete and ostensibly their wings were clipped. The Soviets just never bothered.

Suggestions thread is where this'd go btw.

Game doesn't have air drop operations coded in. Furthermore, Germans stopped airborne operations after Crete. The last one they did was for Wacht Am Rhine in the West, and it was a total failure. Fallschirmjagers were airborne troops in name only.
