How One Gunner's "INSANE" Method Tripled Anti-Aircraft Kill Rates
#WW2 #NavalHistory #MilitaryInnovation
During World War II, American sailors faced a terrifying truth — their anti-aircraft guns simply couldn’t hit fast-moving Japanese aircraft. Kill rates were barely 3%, and kamikaze pilots were turning ships into fireballs. But everything changed when one MIT professor, Dr. Charles Stark Draper, created a device so advanced that Navy officials first called it “INSANE.”
This video uncovers the true story of how Draper’s Mark 14 gyroscopic gunsight revolutionized naval warfare, tripling anti-aircraft accuracy and saving tens of thousands of American lives. Through innovation, courage, and relentless testing, a shoebox-sized invention transformed the U.S. Navy’s defense — turning desperation into dominance.
Discover how science, persistence, and one man’s brilliance changed the outcome of the Pacific War forever.
