summer, 1944. London is being hunted by Germany’s V-1 “buzz bombs,” screaming in at nearly 400 mph. British anti-aircraft guns fill the sky with steel, but it barely matters. A shell must score a direct hit—or it does nothing at all.
Then, without warning, everything changes.
In July 1944, British gun crews receive a new American fuze. No briefing. No explanation. Almost immediately, shells begin exploding near incoming V-1s, tearing them apart mid-air. Interception rates soar. German intelligence recovers unexploded rounds, studies them carefully… and still can’t understand what’s happening.
Because it isn’t magic.
It’s physics.
This is the true WWII story of the VT proximity fuze—a miniature radar system tough enough to survive 20,000 g’s inside an artillery shell, precise enough to sense a target at full speed, and so secret that Germany never fully uncovered how it worked before the war ended.
