a great book on russia, it's role in ww2, detailed information on the lend-lease program and how it benefited russia is "russia's war" by richard overy.

in the book, he states that stalin and zhukov both claimed to other high level russian officers that with out lend-lease aid they could not have beaten Germany.

the lions share of trains, rail road track, aviation fuel, and transport vehicles on the eastern front and virtually all of the radio equipment used was from the lend-lease program.
