Machinery of War

- Season 1

(2019)

Explore the behemoths of war, the grumbling armored monsters like the Panzer III and the gravity-defying bulk of the Lockheed C-5 Galaxy, that dominate their arenas of war with their size and power.

Delving into the world of covert operations and strategic strikes, the range of stealth technology, from the simple concept of camouflage suit, to radar-reduction capabilities.

With the increasing destructive output of weapons, countermeasures had to be developed. As the nature of ware has changed over time, we see modern applications of destructive measures in smaller-scale developments.

The story of how machines have been used, and are being used, to transport armies and all of their equipment over land, across sea, and in the air.

Maneuverability, speed, and efficiency. The pace of tactical responses, button-click warfare, and lightning-fast strikes are all defined by developments in the agility of machinery.

Explore the destructive capability of machinery across all scales, the inventions designed to unleash maximum carnage, then and now.
