If you were in the vicinity of Alamogordo, Inyokern, Dayton, Muroc Dry Lake or Patuxent River, you would hear new sounds and see strange shapes in the skies. These and other military research centers are constantly testing the new fight forms developed jointly by industry and the military --admirals, generals and thousands of officers and enlisted men under their supervision.
The unique talent of our military executives to mobilize science and industry is the Pentagon secret. In this fast-moving age, our defense needs are ever-changing. This requires new weapons, new aircraft, and whole new concepts of defense. The job of planning and developing these is now the biggest business in the world. In dollar volume alone, our Pentagon budget this year is greater than the total output of any industry in the world.
Our new defense devices are more complex, too far more complicated than any consumer product. Each is designed to perform a special and difficult mission. And each originally presented our military executives with a major problem in planning, designing, development and production.
