If the US didn’t enter the war, Soviet logistics would have been significantly degraded. Have you ever seen the material manifests of what we sent the USSR during WWII? They are mind boggling.

All their trucks, radio equipment. Almost everything but artillery and tanks themselves.
In early 1942, the BEST Russian fighter was the P-39, Aircobra, a plane so bad we used the Warhawk instead.

I once had several long conversations with a man who served in Iran as a construction contractor during the war. We built railroads and highways through Iran into the Soviet Union solely to move supplies and equipment in support of the war effort. One example, American farmers couldn't buy new tractors during the war because they were all shipped to Russia.
