马尔克姆･格莱得威尔：诺顿投弹瞄准器的奇怪故事

The Norden bombsight promised to revolutionize warfare by letting pilots drop bombs with pinpoint accuracy, but on the battlefield, reality proved more complicated. Despite $1.5 billion invested and 90,000 devices built, only 10 percent of bombs hit a massive German chemical plant, and many failed to detonate. Even as modern weapons have grown even more precise, conflicts like Afghanistan and Iraq reveal that knowing where to strike matters far more than technological accuracy. Human complexity often renders our most impressive inventions powerless to deliver on their grandest promises.
