Ummm no…First, Germany needed resources and the right scientists to develop an effective atom bomb/two things it lacked. Then you have to protect your nuclear factories from getting the shvt bombed out of them


Did or did not the Germans have their heavy water production? They needed time.

Now, hypothetically, they could have loaded a bomb on a sub and taken it into NY harbor, etc., and exploded it in place.

Since we are on the hypothetic subject, had Britain fallen like it was on the brink of, where would have we landed buildup supplies for DDay?

It doesn’t matter because a 6 division landing isn’t going to last long enough to eat a meal if there’s no eastern front.

They didn’t have an effective base to really build a bomb at all. The US had much more resources, didn’t drain its talent based on an ideology, and the luxury of not being bombed.

Britain falling would need a lot more changes because the Germans had no absolute way of sending a division successfully across the English Channel by air or sea, so either they develop teleportation or meet some aliens lol
