Anyways, back on topic.

I'm pretty sure that at the end of hostilities, the Soviet Army was much bigger than the combined western Armies. Had things turned hostile, the soviet ground forces would have advanced to the French coast in a a matter of weeks. Not enough time for the allies to transfer any b-29s to the theater or begin production of any of the German AFVs. England would have been a different story, with the US and UK aircraft engaged in a life or death struggle with the Red AF. Strategic interdiction of the USSR's industry would not be the problem it was for the Nazis, remember, most Soviet factories were still over the Ural mountains at the time.

Any thoughts?
