Even when the war ended in May 1945, Germany was nowhere near to developing a rocket with sufficient payload to deliver an atomic bomb. As I said earlier, the V2 could only carry a 2,000 lb warhead. The Germans would have to develop and produce a rocket with five times that payload to have one capable of delivering an atomic bomb. And in May, 1945, even London was now outside the range of the V2 due to German territory being captured in both the East and West.

Cool. If we’re living in a hypothetical world where Germany developed a nuke, there’s a non-zero chance that their technology development would have altered from what we saw in this time line.
