No, I will let others inform you of your error in more detail but after June 22 1941 the Nazi's could get a draw at most and December 11th 1941 they were goneIf Hitler had not taken control of the german army. NAZIs would have won WW2.
Even if the Soviets got the bomb in time to use it in a war against Germany, it'd take a long time to build up a decisive number of them.
No more then what they got historically which, if you will recall, was not enough. Particularly given that a good portion of that manpower will be inaccessible for ideological reasons that, unlike OTL, will not be sidelined out of necessity.I think we are also under-estimating what Germany could squeeze out of Europe in terms of material and manpower, from France, Italy, occupied Poland, etc, etc.
~a POD that removes the lend-lease act?
~Hitler not mucking about and expending the Luftwaffe on Britain, and instead building up his resources for a focused attack on the USSR (earlier).
~Sweden joins Finland in the winter war, Finland does better. When the continuation war starts the Finno-Swedish forces aid the Germans enough to take Leningrad (combine this with the above scenarios and this gets rather interesting).
~Rommel on the eastern front at any point will help.
~Hitler doesn't order Rommel to cease his advance in Egypt. Rommel takes Cairo, and then the Suez. Hitler declares the campaign in Africa a success. Rommel is transferred to the East. The Afrikakorps fights with the 6th army at Stalingrad....
~Whites win the Russian Civil War. Far Right in Germany still takes over. Invades Alt-Poland, and France. Quickly defeats Russia, turns attention to England....
A POD in which India revolts from the British Empire during WWI. British come back with a vengance, unable (and unwilling) to retake the colony after a bloody war. India sides with Alt-Nazi Germany....
just ideas.
