Russia, Britain or the US alone could have beat them. each of them outpaced Germany's war economy often by several times. but the war would have lasted a long ass time without multiple fronts due to Hitler forcing the country to fight down to the last man and refusing to surrender

If I remember the numbers correctly the Soviets did not outpace them in production in terms of GDP.

The British Empire did however, as obviously did the Americans.

This is like an American saying "lol the Battle of the Bulge" happened. It just wasn't as signifcant as we'd like to think.

It's awfully impressive that Napoleon can come back from exile and again create the finest army in Europe even when the manpower of France is so depleted.

I do agree that the Germans could not have won on the eastern front, no matter how much lend-lease the Soviet Union received.

But going full retard and claiming that all the high-octane fuel, locomotives, ball bearings and boots didn't help is pretty damn stupid.

Surely the Allies deserved a notable slice of the pie too. Glantz claimed the USSR would've won 12-18 months later without Western aid and that seems accurate.

To be fair, the Germans had a shit nuclear program and no scientists worth a damn working on the project.

So if the Germans had by chance defeated the Soviets, the US would just have nuked Hamburg, Berlin, and any other city until the German surrendered after August of 1945.
>>
>>1062714
Say what you will, I'm not certain they would have been as quick to nuke mainland Europe.

It doesn't have the "foreignness" and distance that likely helped the decision to use it on Japan.

They wouldn't nuke Paris, but considering all the civilians they killed during the firebombing of Dresden, the Allies wouldn't blink about nuking another German city.

>>
>>1062804
They tried to distance themselves from Dresden after the fact.

The nuke obviously wasn't quite the same, no one really knew what it would do in the long term. Japan was an enemy nation extremely far away from anything else anyone vaguely cared about.

Again, I'm not saying they wouldn't do it, I just couldn't see them being quick to.

More like germany throws everything it has on a war and gets treated like a little bitxh for the next 50 years.

If the Germans could knock the British out of the war after defeating the Soviets, the Americans wouldn't have dared nuke Europe.

With, American grain, trucks, and boots, British bullets and petrol.

Excuse my ignorance, but did the Russians get armed by American manufactured Russian designed weapons, or have i been thinking of Russians armaments entirely incorrectly and they'd been fighting with rations stamped USA, springfields, tommy guns, and garands alongside their home produced armaments?
>>
>>1060802

Correct. Problem was of course that the german GDP still contained lots of unnecessary luxury items, something that didn't change until the instatement of a war economy in 44, while the Soviet economy was almost wholly devoted to arms industry.
>>
>>1064688
I know Springfield Armory manufactured Mosin Nagants under contract for the Russians, but the vsst majority was cartridges. Tons and tons of bullets.
