Nation-building Done Right: The Long History of American Developmentalism*Carlos Roa* *History, Americas* If America is to find its way through its current troubles, we must look to our past and draw inspiration from the efforts of our forebears. It contains many salutary lessons which Congress and the Biden administration would do well to draw upon. AMERICAN POLICYMAKERS, foreign policy experts, and business leaders remain attached to a eupeptic view of history that has its origins in the end of the Cold War. The received view is that, since democratic capitalism was what won the Cold War, future policy should focus on the twin goals of reorganizing... read more

Israel is Using Robots with Machine Guns to Patrol Gaza Border*Sebastien Roblin* *Israel, Middle East* The Jaguar's role in a border patrol and possibly anti-riot capacity will likely continue to receive scrutiny as public security services across the world explore deploying unmanned systems with offensive capabilities. A photo posted last Saturday appears to confirm that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) has operationally deployed Jaguar robotic vehicles armed with machine guns to patrol the Gaza border wall. The unmanned system also has a built-in public address system which could be used to warn border infiltrators to cease and desist. I... read more

Death From Down Below: The Five Best Cold War Submarines*Robert Farley* *Submarines, World* History's greatest submarine campaign fortunately never went "hot." *Here's What You Need to Know*: The long, quiet struggle of the Cold War led to consistent technological innovation across several different countries. History’s three great submarine campaigns include the First Battle of the Atlantic, the Second Battle of the Atlantic, and the US Navy’s (USN) war against Japanese commerce in World War II. The contestants fought these campaigns through asymmetrical means, with submarines doing battle against aircraft and surface escorts. But ... read more

Debate: Does America Really Need an Air Force?*Robert Farley* *U.S. Air Force, Americas* The country certainly needs air power, but a separate Air Force might be redundant. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The U.S. Air Force remains locked in an uneasy, distant embrace with its parent services. With the Iraq War over and the fighting in Afghanistan winding down, why does the United States need to maintain two large land armies, the Army and Marine Corps? The question seems perfectly reasonable given the apparent absence of large terrestrial threats, but it leads us down the wrong path. The United States military is all about... read more

How the Nazis's MG 34 Left a Lasting Impact on Firearm History*Caleb Larson* *World War II, Europe* [image: Reuters] The MG 34 design continued to be manufactured until the end of the war. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Germany’s Bundeswehr still fields the MG3 general-purpose machine gun. Though the design has been modernized somewhat, its not too bad for something that is approaching a century in age. The MG 34 design originated in Germany during the interwar period preceding both world wars. Up until World War II, machine guns had typically been water-cooled—and correspondingly heavy and immobile. Efforts to build an air-cooled machin... read more

Operation Paperclip: How America Learned From Nazi Weapons*Robert Farley* *Nazi Germany, Europe* Paper and microfilm wasn’t enough. German scientists and engineers themselves held their value in their heads. *Here's What You Need to Know*: America did built some of its weapons based on what it learned from the Nazis, but overall the haul was disappointing. Before the guns fell silent in 1945, the Allies had already drawn up plans for gathering as much German technology as they could take. The German war machine had caused untold destruction across the continent, and German technology was reputed to be cutting age. Weapons like the V-2 m... read more
