Like I said
Thier is no reason America would not use Nuclear Weapons, Back then they realy didn't have any clues what it would do and it wasn't a crime agianst humanity then. So we would use that often probably.
After Atomic Bombs wipe out Leningrad, does the USSR continue to fight? Moscow? Stalingrad? Kiev? Smolensk? Minsk? The USA could have kept going from there.Doppleganger said:Dameon said:....Okay ....

True but they couldn't use nukes on the battlefield if things were going against them for fear of hitting their own troops.
If you take nukes out of the equation I think the USSR would win, with the US/UK forced to retreat back to England and France becoming part of the Soviet sphere of influence. I'll explain why I think this when I get a bit more time.

Essentially true, but the USA could have rapidly produced many, many more. Look at history, that's what they did isn't it?Aguy201 said:wait America didnt even have but like 3 atom bombs in 1945 right?

Doppleganger said:Remember some points guys:
1. Would the USAAF have been able to drop any atomic weapons in May/June 1945?
2. The Red Army had a BIG advantage in tanks, artillery and troops, plus a big swelling momentum pushing West.
3. The average US/UK soldier was better trained than his Soviet counterpart but as the Germans found the individual Russian soldier was extremely tough and by 1945, battle hardened in the fires of the Ostfront.
4. The Soviet Air force known as the Voenno-Vozdushniye Sily (VVS) in 1945 was much stronger than the Luftwaffe that faced the Allies was. Most people seem to forget that the USSR produced a total of 139,748 aircraft throughout WW2. That compares well with the US total of 160,070 for example.
