I'd guess Europe would be speaking German, not the U.S.

this a bit of alternative history question well to start with assume you mean weapons that actually existed rather than on the drawing board. to start with they would have crush france and poland even easier than they did in any case iwth britian is question is harder the german late jet desgn would have meant the RAF was at disadvantage in any battle of britian they would also have been able bombard London with V11 from 1940s as well probably capture egpht with advanced tanks. However they still did not have navy to capture britian an invasion without navel supermacy is very dangerous even with advanced tech possible the british would have made hallifix primeminster and come to terms.
They could have also fair easily taken over a large part of Russia however technology would not allow invation of US it was to far and too powerful. All this would have lead postion little like that is robert harris novel fatherland with nazi dominated world in the 1960s however I doubt the nazi would have been able to hold the empire long term. I any case is si fi alternative how did the nazi 1945 weapon turn up in 1940 magic! try reading harry turtledove war in the balence novel if this interests you

I disagree.

These technologies may have made Hitler's conquest of Europe much easier and shorter and he may have even conquered Russia. But it would have served to push the Allies' efforts to develop their own super weapons like the atomic bomb into even higher gear and the US would have dropped it sooner and on Germany instead of on Japan. With the unparalleled industrial might of the US even back then, it's hard for me to imagine the US wouldn't have prevailed in the end despite the German super-weapons. The US also had the added advantage of being geographically distant and isolated from Europe and Japan. This would have given it more time to develop weapons without its factories or research centers being bombed constantly.

Fortunately, Germany squandered its wonder weapons because Hitler made military strategic and tactical decisions based more on his emotions and phobias rather than on logic. But even if he had completely left the important military decisions to his best generals and planners, he still would have lost the war in the end, in my opinion.

I'm assuming the Japanese wouldn't have been as advanced (because at that time, aside from the aircraft of the Imperial Air Force and Navy, their military technology was not that good). Now, if Hitler had shared his new technologies with the Japanese and we were forced to fight two technologically advanced enemies on a global scale, it would have been a closer call.

If the Allies had M1A2 tanks and the F-22.. then what?

People had what they had and did what they could. 99% of the German "secret" weapons were just theoretical drawings.

Germany was producing commercial automobiles into 1943, think about that one for awhile.

Ok kiddies, back to the cartoon network now.

Late technology as in King Tigers, Jets and V-2 rockets? I guess the US would've used "Fat Boy" n "Little Boy" on Berlin instead of Hiroshima and Nagasaki....
