It can be reversed in a year. In 1941 the US increased its production of tanks by 7x. In 1942 it increased production again by 4x. This idea that building industry takes decades needs to die a painful death.

You're really comparing scaling up manufacturing of a 70 year old tank to building modern weaponry?
That is beyond ridiculous.
The US is a large country with plenty of resources.
There's a certain large European country with plenty of resources that is pretty famous for scaling its tank production just a couple years before the US did.
