We essentially imported the Nazi rocket program and continued investing in it. Obviously that continued investment was essential, but I don't think it's overstating it to say it's what made it possible. Many of the countries that have nukes have them as a direct result of espionage, and I don't think many people would object to saying that it was the espionage that made it possible, even though that is far less than importing large groups of scientists and equipment.
