    The Japanese were defintily working on it. Some of the scientist involved have given very good acounts of it. They were however a long way from achieveing any significant results. Note that developing a bomb doesn't just invovle a significant economic input but it takes a lot of energy too. Especially by 1940's standards. Japan was very energy limited in addition to being econmically light.

    Almost every (major) country was working on an A-Bomb in '45, the Americans though got there first. And we should be thankful for that.
