Imagine having to invent a computer in order to use it to break a code that was not created by a computer.
When it comes to tanks,we were way behind the Germans and producing primitive but in large qualities.
In targeting optics alone,ours was 2.5 while theirs were over 5X,deadly accurate.
But the Norton bomb site was in essence a computer,and ships used a primitive computer of sorts for their fire control systems.
The interesting part was Britain had most of the technology advancement designs but once they designed it they sent it to us to build because we had the ability to mass produce.
Technology is crazy,now you can blow up a $10 million dollar tank that is so advanced that it can almost drive and target itself,with a $400 off the shelf drone that an average consumer can buy.
The interesting thing is if you are on the receiving end, that tank built in Detroit in 1941 is going to have the same results as a tank built in 2024.
