Re: Kernwaffen

I admit I'm way out of date on this but I did read David Irving's "The Virus House" many years ago and he made it pretty clear that little progress had been made before the war ended. A I remember it, they even had trouble amassing sufficient high-quality graphite to moderate a reactor (ditto for control vanes on the V-2, incidentally) hence the emphasis on heavy water.
