I'm not quite sure what you mean as "progress". It appears to be a technology that somebody would have developed sometime in the timeframe of the 1940s, 1950s, or 1960s, even if WW2 had not accelerated the "need" for it. The idea of the neutron chain reaction required for it had already been patented in 1934 by Leo Szilard and the Uranium fission reaction needed to make it work had already been discovered in 1939 by Otto Hahn. The main thing that limits it is the specialized industrial infrastructure that needs to be developed to prepare the components. However it has more or less been shown that for a country sized entity, this takes roughly 4 years from decision to proceed to ability to make bombs.
