IIRC, in AANW, the Germans got suckered by the mother of all disinformation campaigns. They had what was left of the KGB spreading the news that the Americans had determined (just as the Germans had) that an atomic bomb wasn't a feasible weapon. Plus, the bomb wasn't used in Japan, something that Germany assumed it would have been if they existed. I also seem to recall that testing was pretty limited and that what testing did take place, was done in the literal ass end of nowhere.Calbear you wrote:
Something has been bugging me. In your TL AANW the Germans never followed through with their atomic bomb project, but they had both the time and the resources to do so. They also had a period of peace where they would have been uninterrupted in any research they did. I have trouble believing Germany given these preconditions, plus probably having a spy or two to let them know just how powerful the U.S. a-bomb was would have any trouble duplicating the feat.
