If the US had stayed neutral (Hitler and Japan had been sensible and had done everything possible to keep the US neutral) No Manhattan project at all seems unlikely but without Pearl Harbour it doesnt get the Billions it got.
What is the earliest that the Tube_Alloys project could build a bomb to drop on Germany without any help (or at least nothing overt) from the US.
Would it have been a Uranium Gun type Little Boy or a Plutonium Implosion type Fat Man. Gaseous Diffusion for Uranium was done in 1940 by ICI I cant find out if Uranium 238 production was done in Britain during the war.
Where would the Empire get its Uranium from.
Where would the labs and major manufacturing centres be.
Where would the test site be.
