Yes, indeed, the Americans were far behind and Hitler could have made it if the allies attacked later. But because the allies attacked when they did, Hitler's resources became streched and he needed weapons very fast, so he decided to cancel all weapons projects if they couldn't be ready within a year! By the rate they were going they couldn't have been ready in five years! :P
