> During World War II, the United States produced and deployed a significantly larger number of bombers than the Soviet Union. The US produced over 63,000 heavy, medium, and very heavy bombers in total, with its air force receiving the vast majority. In contrast, the Soviet Union produced a total of 136,800 aircraft, but a smaller portion were bombers, and its few long-range heavy bomber types, like the Pe-8, were produced in very limited numbers, with only about 98 ever built.
They didn't even have to do a victory by bombings because, oddly enough, someone else was doing it for them!
