The Perversity of Things (1952)Hugo Gernsback
The chapter details advanced military technologies and strategies developed by the U.S. and British forces during World War III to prevent enemy bombings and submarine attacks on U.S. cities and war production centers. Key innovations include the Rasura underwater radio submarine detection system, stratoradar high-altitude radar planes for early bomber detection, atomic-powered submarauders capable of land and sea combat, and the electronic autogun designed to detect and neutralize camouflaged enemy guns. These technologies collectively enhanced defense capabilities, significantly reducing enemy success and casualties.
