Read Aftermath and Conclusion at the above. I can’t get it to post for some reason.
Lend lease required the return of ships after the war. How do you think that went after the war?
If they had used them for invasion with japan, how would that have gone?
The most interesting conclusion to me was that even after Project Hula the Soviets still didn’t have the sealift needed to invade Hokkaido or Honshu. They would have had (and did have) their hands full just invading Sakhalin and the Kuriles.
