"Hitler definitely had his eye on the U.S.: Although The National Interest calls the Nazi attempt at building a bomber that could cross the Atlantic an idiotic waste of resources, the idea behind building something literally called the Amerikabomber means that the U.S. was on the sort of list that no one wants to be on. And that, says Duffy, was just part of it. In 1941, the Nazi regime started planning for a postwar world. First and foremost, that meant a massive navy with hundreds of submarines, anchored by 25 battleships and 150 destroyers."
