Nazi intelligence was certain: capture Moscow and Leningrad, and the Soviet economy would collapse within weeks. The factories were too big to move, the workers too specialised, the infrastructure too fragile. They were catastrophically wrong. Between July and November 1941, the USSR evacuated 1,523 entire factories—dismantling massive steel presses, loading them onto 1.5 million railway wagons, and shipping them a thousand miles east whilst German forces advanced. Workers reassembled production lines in frozen Siberian fields and were building tanks within weeks. What looked like primitive Soviet industry was actually designed for exactly this catastrophe. By 1943, the "fragile" economy was outproducing all of Nazi-controlled Europe. This is the story of history's greatest intelligence failure—and the brutal economic resilience that won the Eastern Front.
