Book American Military Technology

Download or read book American Military Technology written by Barton C. Hacker and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2007-11-29 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth of American engineering and science has affected military technology, organization, and practice from the colonial era to the present day—even as military concerns have influenced, and often funded, domestic engineering programs and scientific development. American Military Technology traces the interplay of technology and science with the armed forces of the United States in terms of what Hacker and Vining view as epochs: 1840–1865, the introduction of modern small arms, steam power, and technology, science, and medicine; 1900–1914, the naval arms race, torpedoes and submarines, and the signal corps and the airplane; and 1965–1971, McNamara's Pentagon, technology in Vietnam, guided missiles, and smart bombs. The book is an excellent springboard for understanding the complex relationship of science, technology, and war in American history.

Book Technology and Military Doctrine

Download or read book Technology and Military Doctrine written by I. B. Holley, Jr. and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-07-31 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author's interest in Air Force doctrine was first aroused when he was a sergeant serving as an aerial gunnery instructor in early 1943. When the operational research people revealed that what we were teaching was faulty, he came to realize that the Air Force system for developing doctrine was flawed. The problem continued to interest him and later, after he was commissioned and serving on the faculty of the Industrial College of the Armed Forces, he wrote his book Ideas and Weapons using the experience of the air arm to expound the need for a more systematic procedure for developing doctrine. Because the doctrinal materials gathered on World War II were still highly classified, he reverted to World War I to put across his thesis without violating security. The author's real concern was to contribute to the soon to be established US Air Force in the search for a more effective means of formulating doctrine. The essays that follow reflect how his ideas developed over the 30-odd years of my Air Force career. Inevitably there are some overlaps and repetitions given the origin of these essays as articles and lectures spread over many years. The main themes are evident. He repeatedly made the case for the importance of doctrine and the need to perfect the technological advances in equipment. He was concerned to see that doctrine was continually perfected in peacetime and not just in wartime when the pressure of enemy performance provides a powerful incentive to do this. Another theme repeatedly stated was the need for officers suitably educated to see the importance of doctrine and realize that doctrine is literally “everybody's business” and not just the concern of a handful of individuals assigned to the formal task of compiling doctrinal manuals. These people are important, but they cannot perform effectively if officers throughout the service fail to write after-action reports summarizing their valuable experiences, not just in air operations but in all aspects of the air arm activities, procurement, personnel administration, logistics, and legislative liaison. One can easily make the case that improving the ability of the Air Force to cope with Congress is just as important as suggesting the best possible doctrine for aerial combat. One can't just assume that every newly promoted flag officer will instinctively understand the best way of testifying on Capitol Hill. Much of the doctrinal problem within the Air Force stems from the professional education of officers. Unless they are rigorously educated to undertake the objective analysis of recorded historical experience, all the most carefully edited doctrinal manuals will avail little. One of the author's insistent themes is the need to make doctrinal manuals not only more readable but more memorable. To this end several of the following essays are addressed to those who are assigned as doctrinal writers.

Book The Oxford Handbook of War

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of War written by Julian Lindley-French and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2012-01-19 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of War is the definitive analysis of war in the twenty-first century. With over forty senior authors from academia, government and the armed forces world-wide the Handbook explores the history, theory, ethics and practice of war. The Handbook first considers the fundamental causes of war, before reflecting on the moral and legal aspects of war. Theories on the practice of war lead into an analysis of the strategic conduct of war and non Western ways of war. The heart of the Handbook is a compelling analysis of the military conduct of war which is juxtaposed with consideration of technology, economy, industry, and war. In conclusion the volume looks to the future of this apparently perennial feature of human interaction.

Book Les armes de guerre portatives en France  du d  but du r  gne de Louis XIV    la veille de la R  volution   1660 1789  de l ind  pendance    la primaut    2

Download or read book Les armes de guerre portatives en France du d but du r gne de Louis XIV la veille de la R volution 1660 1789 de l ind pendance la primaut 2 written by François Bonnefoy and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1991-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: « Le colonel Bonnefoy apporte une contribution essentielle à l'histoire militaire de la France moderne. Sa thèse analyse, avec autant de clarté que de rigueur, des progrès techniques, technologiques et tactiques, sans lesquels la France n'aurait pas été en mesure de dominer l'Europe continentale à l'aube de l'ère contemporaine. » Jean Chagniot, professeur à l'Université de Picardie. « On a souvent raconté des batailles, et les musées exposent les armes conservées, mais un chaînon manquait. Avec l'ouvrage du colonel Bonnefoy, les instruments de combat - et les hommes qui les ont conçus, fabriqués, expérimentés – prennent, dans nos connaissances, la place qui leur revient. Ainsi, on comprendra mieux ce que furent l'art militaire et la guerre, de Louis XIV à la Révolution. » Professeur émérite André Corvisier, président d'honneur de la Commission internationale d'Histoire militaire. « Le XVIIIe siècle est une grande époque, en France, pour la réflexion stratégique et tactique. Mais il manquait, jusqu'alors, pour l'étudier avec fruit, un travail de base sur les armes portatives - particulièrement le fusil - dont l'apparition sur le champ de bataille a des conséquences considérables sur les méthodes de combat. François Bonnefoy, au prix d'un dépouillement considérable d'archives, apporte désormais une précieuse information, non seulement sur l'évolution technique du fusil, mais sur les structures de production et leur place dans la vie économique du pays. » Général (c. r.) Jean Delmas, président de la Commission française d'Histoire militaire. « Paradoxalement, l'industrie de guerre française de l'époque moderne n'avait pas donné lieu à une étude approfondie. La lacune est désormais comblée. Se révèle ainsi, grâce à l'extraordinaire documentation amassée par le colonel Bonnefoy, la mise en place d'une très forte industrie d'armement sous Louis XIV. Sur cette base, la technologie française accentue, au XVIIIe siècle, son avance. La thèse de François Bonnefoy dévoile ainsi un pan majeur de l'histoire militaire et, plus encore, de l'histoire nationale de notre pays. » Jean Meyer, professeur à l'Université de Paris Sorbonne
