Depends on how effective our use of the atomic bomb would have been.

We could only produce a one or two at a time, so we would have to have picked the targets very carefully.

But one thing is certain. We would have obtained air superiority very quickly, and the Eight Air Force would have been able to strike Soviet war industry in a thorough and effective way. Even the factories which Stalin had moved to east of the Urals.

We would have had 6 months to finish the war. If we went into December, January we would have had to face the weather.

Correct but our production facilities were at full force. We had the ability to turn them out like hot dogs in a few short months. We were supreme.
