Obviously it depends on how tightly focused it it on Earth (how big a target you want to hit all at once) but you could make one with a _much_ smaller reflector than 9km2. The "lots of little ones" idea is much better as one big reflector risks burning an unintended path towards and away from the intended target (the little ones can all come from different directions to minimise unintended frying)

Okay lets say they manage to actually built it somehow. How would they sent it to orbit? Okay lets say they got some rockets/propellers. And how do they manage to send orders to it and calculate where to burn? Don't think in 1940's transmission tech could be this advanced. This would be a challenge even today (tho achievable)
