The only thing that's for sure is. The US arm sales in WW2, catapulted the US to Number One in the World.

The USA catapulted to world super power in ~1916, during ww1, not WW2. Europeans couldn't afford their own offensives on each other even then and came to US scrambling for supplies, and not just weapons either.
So to be clear, USA catapulted to number one because Europeans couldnt stop warring with each other.
