This has fundamentally to do with Barnes Wallis’ development of anti-dam “rolling bombs”, in the context of World War II, though it sheds further light on the corporate trajectories of various firms we have on hand, as well as the principles involved in innovation, per se, in the context of corporate and governmental economic influence and control.
It has primarily to do with ideas and actualities of air power, if not making non-aero military obsolete, at least having a profound effect on the calculations involved in war.
