Lend Lease accounted for around of 4% of total war material expenditure by USSR. We can’t even assume that it was especially important because of being timely, since only around mid 1943 some LL deliveries, mainly trucks, achieved numbers enough to really allow USSR to shift their production in other directions.
Fair point, I hadn’t seen the numbers on Lend-Lease. I was aware that the vast bulk of millitary resources were Soviet produced, but not aware of just how vast, thank you.
