Why would Britain be overpowered and collapse in this TL? Does the Spitfire/Hurricane/Radar not get developed?

I can see now reason why Hitler would invade the Ussr if britain fall, plus I only though of this time and time again but here's a simpler way, Stalin really wanted to be friends with hitler and so did he (atleast in my story)

The whole point of Nazism was to invade Russia and gain lebenasraum for the German people and neither Stalin nor Hitler wanted to be friends with each other, they just signed the Nonaggression Pact to buy off time, after which one would invade the other. And even if Stalin wanted to be "friends" with Hitler, this feeling could never be mutual. Hitler hated the USSR and communism to the bone.

There were no "badly needed supplies from America" that prevented a British collapse in 1940.

Then he's not Hitler, sorry. Find a replacement if you want this to hold water.

Well I'm actually using my imagination for this story, I should have mensioned this earlier but the story will be set in the post ww2 world. the inspiration for this lies in not Turtledove but WAR FRONT TURNING POINT, PAOLO PARENTE'S DUST AND 2009 LOST MEMORIES, Would you like me to explain some more or just write the next plotline of backgrounds.

What America supplied to Britian that really helped was something that few know about, 100 octane aviation fuel. This meant that the Merlins could make another 300 horsepower. BUT the Brits wouldn't have fallen without this fuel. The US supplied very little to Britain which helped it through the danger period of August-October 1940.

ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND
1943-THE USA, JAPAN, AND THE NEW CHINESE REPUBLIC ALONG WITH OTHERS FORM THE TRANS-PACIFIC DEFENSE ALLIANCE. THE SOVIET-AXIS COALITION IS FORMED TO COUNTER THIS.
1944-THE ALLIES AND COALITION ALMOST COME TO BLOWS BUT NOTHING TOO SERIOUS. OFFICIALLY WW2 HAS ENDED BUT A DARKENING RIVALRY BETWEEN THE 2 PACTS LEADS TO THE COLD WAR.
1946-THE US DEVELOPS THE ATOM BOMB. ADOLF HITLER IS ASSASSINATED BY THE GERMAN RESISTANCE IN A FAILED COUP. HERMAN GOERING AND HEINRICH HIMMLER COMPETE FOR THE CHANCELLORSHIP. THE SOVIETS DEVELOP THEIR ATOM BOMBS BY THE CLOSING OF THE YEAR.
1947-HIMMLER BECOMES CHANCELLOR. TECHNOLOGY RAPIDLY ADVANCES AT A HIGH RATE.
1961-THE ARGENTINIAN MISSILE CRISIS BECOMES WW3. NUCLEAR EXCHANGE IS LIMITED BUT EFFECTIVE. A BATTLE FOR THE DOMINANCE OF THE WORLD BEGINS.

Since you've got enough holes in your ATL for it to be swiss cheese maybe you should just post things once you really think things thru. And unlock for cap control on your keyboard please.
