The success of the operation proved to be a major turning point in the war against the Soviet Union. Having recognized the vulnerability of their silos, the Soviets relocated most of their missiles deeper within Russia, where they were rendered strategically worthless. With the nuclear threat eliminated, Western Europe gave full support to the United States in its war against the Soviet Union. They immediately sent additional troops and supplies to the states, bolstering the demoralized U.S. forces still resisting the invaders. The German government also established contact between the American government and the most brilliant technical mind in the world: Albert Einstein. Einstein, although strongly anti-war, recognized the Soviet threat and provided the Allies with the technology and weapons that would allow them to drive the invading Soviets out of North America and Europe. Einstein's technologies greatly strengthened the American forces, who could now fight the Soviets with relative ease.

With Europe acting as a full participant in the war, the Soviet Union declared war on Western Europe. Unfortunately, this drew their focus away from invading the continental United States, relieving the Americans of some pressure from the Soviets. Soon after, South Korea Japan and Philippines also declared war on the Soviet Union, focusing their efforts on damaging Soviet operations in the Pacific. With the war expanding into Europe and East Asia, the Soviets faced mounting pressure in their conquest of the United States, now badly weakened by Europe's entry into the war.

After regrouping their forces and gaining their new weapons, the Americans renewed their campaign to liberate their homeland, beginning with a major assault on Soviet-occupied Washington, D.C.
