EDITORS COMMENTS
In the not too distant future, seaborne rockets and flying bombs may become the new norm for naval warfare, as depicted in this 1945 illustration by renowned artist G.H. Davis for the Illustrated London News. The image showcases a cross-section view of a capital ship, equipped with an impressive arsenal of wireless-controlled robot projectiles. These advanced weapons, including rockets and bombs, are poised to revolutionize naval combat. The illustration highlights the innovative use of technology, with the robotic projectiles being carried and operated from the capital ship. The wireless control system allows for precise targeting and launching, giving naval forces a significant advantage in the heat of battle. The rockets and bombs are shown in various stages of flight, some still tethered to the ship, while others soar through the sky, ready to strike their intended targets. The integration of these seaborne weapons into naval fleets represents a major shift in military strategy, enabling ships to engage enemy targets from a greater distance and with increased accuracy. The potential for devastating damage and the ability to strike from the safety of the sea make these weapons a formidable addition to any navy. As the world recovers from the devastation of World War II, the development and deployment of such advanced weaponry would undoubtedly shape the future of naval warfare. G.H. Davis' illustration serves as a fascinating glimpse into the possibilities of a post-war military landscape, where technology and innovation drive the evolution of warfare at sea.
