The need for new and better weapons is as old as the beginnings of organized warfare, as is the truism that better weapons can overcome an enemy having more weapons. In twentieth-century air warfare this historical truth is particularly pertinent, chiefly because of the rapid rate of obsolescence of military airplanes since 1914, during a period when international rivalry, growing commercial competition, and other pressures stimulated the development of airframes with better airfoils, power plants with better performance, and equipment with greater precision and effectiveness.
