Default re: What if Germany had it's advanced technology earlier on?

A hypothentical war between Germanic-Europa and North America would likely be off into the fifties as both sides would have developed huge navies. I imagine that Germany could make a large Navy if they had Europe under their influence/Control as they would have had access to the excellent ports of Amsterdam, Brest, Hamburg, Kiel and Koenigsberg.

The nuclear bomb discussion is on the idea that the Germans could have had working reactors by 1948 in the latest which would have given them much time to develop weapons using it.

Now if we were looking at bombing raids I could see the Germans having an easier time bombing cities such as Boston, Newark, New York and Washington( If they could squeeze a task force in) as they were directly across the Ocean and and they werent miles inland.

America would have a more difficult time with this as they would have to face fighter wings from occupied Britain, France, and Benelux to reach Germany which could have led to many problems.
