The Russians had a mole ( or several moles) planted in the Manhattan
project and Stalin was aware of the program and our progress. That's one of
the reasons that  the soviets came up with their own bomb so soon after the
end of WWII. When the Germans realized they had lost the war the attempted
to ship their supply of U235 to Japan by Submarine. The Submarine (
coincidentally  was # U234 ) was a new design and the largest German sub
made to date . It was on it's maiden voyage and had trouble which delayed
it's departure. They were sunk by a British submarine with a torpedo shot
that was fired while they were both submerged. The German sub with all
hands and all the U235 was lost. besides the U235 which was supposedly not
meant for use in an Atomic bomb , but for use as a catalyst in the
production of synthetic methanol. The sub also carried three complete
Messerschmitt aircraft (presumably ME 262's because the sub also carried
several spare Junkers jet engines as well as other cutting edge German
military hardware and technology The Russians also got their hands on one
of our B-29's ( the second most expensive weapon system in history (at the
time) after the Atomic bomb . Th Russians reverse engineered it before
returning it to the US totally taken apart ( if I remember the story
correctly). I found a link to the story. Here it is  The voyage of
U234<http://www.h-net.org/reviews/showrev.php?id=4048>
