Some facts:

the Ju 390 had only 1 prototype completed (the completition of V2 is disputed), the plane never was equipping any regular unit, there never was any bomber version flying (It was meant to be a transporter and long range naval recon/bomber in the irst place)

the flight of the Ju 390 is just a myth, beside that the 390 actually had not the range to to do that

and no, there was no such thing as a rapidly developing German A-bomb.
