The joint US, UK, Canada project to build the fission bomb (originally invented and patented by Leo Szilard in 1934), that became the Manhattan Project, was to attempt to beat Nazi Germany to the same goal as they were believed to be ahead of the Allies when the project began.

The project to build the fusion bomb was a similar race but against the USSR.
