  1. Germany paused on western front and still could not defeat the Soviets - by the time allies got involved Germany clearly lost the war - i.e. by 1943 Soviet had turned the tide decisively. Main problem for Germany was that Soviet industry was huge - it could out produce Germany & Soviet man power was also huge. Allied non intervention would have weakened Soviet Union but Germany would still loose.

  2. other than 3 you wrote is true. 1) yeah, like the T-34 that Germans wanted to copy but settled on the panther which performed soo poorly initially 2) Both Soviets and US employed "inferior" tanks - so inferior they were superior - i.e. T-34 and Sherman were best tanks of the war as they could be made in large numbers and were reliable - so what they could not take on Tiger easily. 3) yes 4) you got populations wrong - Germany - united - was well over 100m. German production was not split at all - allies in the west were not really involved in 1941, nor 1942 nor 1943. Soviet production was simply dwarfing German production as Soviet industry was very advanced - i.e. they had high tech for the time. Something Germany did not expect - they were not fighting a cave man - they were fighting a technological equal.

  3.  @nvelsen1975  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_combat_vehicle_production_during_World_War_II vs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_armoured_fighting_vehicle_production_during_World_War_II "The United Kingdom produced 27,528 tanks and self-propelled guns from July 1939 to May 1945," --- this is dwarfed by Soviet production.

  4.  @abcdedfg8340  Imagine that Ukraine now got more stuff from the west than Soviets got throughout entire WWII. Yes, help was nice and noticeable - it may have prevented Stalin from caving in - or at least from Soviets becoming very weak & prolonging the war till 1946 or 1947. Germany may have realized they need nukes after all and developed them together with US. Japan would not be attacked by Soviets. Etc. etc.
