Would operation Barbarossa have succeeded had the German Army in France been sent to the Russian Front?
Its impossible to say for certain. The extra forces might have allowed the Germans to destroy enough of the Red Army, fast enough, that the Soviets would have been forced to make peace, on the other hand, they could have simply kept retreating farther into Russia and the Germans still might have found themselves with too much territory to occupy and supply lines that were too long. Michael Montagne
In 1941 there was no "German Army Front" in France. (The occupying force wasn't very big). If you're talking about the Normandy landings and 1944-45 Germany wasn't able to choose fronts. It had to fight on both.

Compare and contrast Operation Barbarossa and Operation Overload in terms of general objectives and military operations?
Operation Barbarossa, launched by Nazi Germany in June 1941, aimed to invade the Soviet Union and decisively defeat it to secure Lebensraum (living space) for Germany. The operation involved a rapid advance across a vast front, employing blitzkrieg tactics to encircle and destroy Soviet forces. In contrast, Operation Overlord, which began on June 6, 1944, sought to liberate Western Europe from Nazi occupation through a massive amphibious assault on Normandy, France. While Barbarossa focused on swift territorial conquest, Overlord prioritized establishing a foothold in Europe through coordinated Allied efforts and extensive logistical planning.
