how much military aid did the Allies give to the Soviets? could they still have won the war without it?

I don't have the figures handy, but Allied aid to the USSR was quite substantial. While I doubt the Soviets would have lost without it, Allied supplies were particularly important to the Russians in the early part of the war in the east.

Throughout the war the Russians relied on the Allies heavily for transport trucks and rations - spam in particular was considered to be a delicacy (no accounting for taste I suppose . . .). Allied aircraft such as the P-39, Hurricane, and P-40 were put to good use by the Russians, although Allied tanks such as the Sherman were derided.
