No, I do mean Earthquake bombs up to the US 'Cloudmaker' size, as well as other nastier things...
This is a map of Europe in 1943 in the Drake's Drum timeline.
Only just noticed the disappearance of the cuckoo clock!
Like Vickers' Scheme 'B' of 1943, on which the Vindex is based, it has a typical operational range of 2,500 mi (4,023 km).

Not all of what the Germans hold in the East, but Lincolnshire to Minsk or Aberdeenshire to St Petersburg (Lansberg).

Sounds a bit like Orson Wells famous line from The Third Man...
Partly inspired by that but relating to that country, which I suddenly realised was no longer present.

Possibly a lot more could be hit from bases in the ME region. Most importantly perhaps to be able to hit Baku.
