Yes, my interest is Japan's atomic program in Konan, Korea during WWII, but German shipments of uranium oxide to Japan is not part of my evidence or interest.</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 19px; font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; background-color: transparent; font-style:

The NZ plant at Konan, also believed related to the atomic bomb, turned out to be related to the jet fuel Z-stoff (German rocket fuel). But what's most interesting, whatever NZ is related to, the Soviets continued to pursue that technology at Konan (Hungnam) until 1948 and beyond. </span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 19px; font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"><span><br></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 19px; font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; background-color:
