From the development of intercontinental ballistic missiles to the creation of advanced fighter jets, the book provides a detailed account of the machines and weaponry that won the war. The book begins by discussing the political tensions between the two superpowers and how these tensions led to an arms race that drove technological progress. It then delves into the specific technologies that were developed during this time, including nuclear weapons, space exploration, and computer technology. The author argues that the ability of each side to adapt and evolve their technology was key to their success on the battlefield. One of the most significant technological advancements of the Cold War was the development of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) by both the Soviet Union and the United States. These weapons had the capability to reach any target on the planet, making them a powerful deterrent against attack. The book explores how ICBMs were developed, tested, and deployed by both sides, and how they changed the nature of warfare forever. Another important area of technological advancement during the Cold War was the development of advanced fighter jets. These aircraft were designed to fly faster and higher than ever before, giving pilots an unprecedented level of control over the battlefield.
