Actualy they were in process but they needed two more months for nuclear
weapons and at least 8 months for America rocket.
BTW advances in German advanced weapon research was the real reason behind
Normandy landings.

I sure would like to know what history books you have been reading. The
invasion of Normandy along with the one from the south was to keep the Soviets
from occupying nothern and central Europe.

As for the 2 months until they had an atomic bomb I'd sure like to know when
they were going to get sufficient uranium or plutonium since they had no where
near enough in May 1945. The Brits put the German nuke progam scientists in a
well bugged house in England after they were captured. They reacted to the news
of the atomic bombing of Japan with shock. They couldn't understand how the
U.S. had pulled it off since they themselves hadn't figured out how to do it.

As for the Amerika rocket IIRC its payload was around 500 - 1000 kg. I may be
wrong, but that's how I remember it. They never intended to heave nukes with
it.
