Those scientists incl Werner von Braun - nukes are no good without delivery systems - were almost all grabbed by the US,

True but there were other German scientists they grabbed:

German physicists who worked on the Uranverein and were sent to the Soviet Union to work on the Soviet atomic bomb project included: Werner Czulius, Robert Döpel, Walter Herrmann, Heinz Pose, Ernst Rexer, Nikolaus Riehl, and Karl Zimmer. Günter Wirths, while not a member of the Uranverein, worked for Riehl at the Auergesellschaft on reactor-grade uranium production and was also sent to the Soviet Union.


And as for delivery systems, it was the Russians who got Sputnik into orbit first.
