Paveway, the first “smart” bomb, was created to be a more precise and ostensibly humane weapon, reducing civilian casualties. In his new book, The Warhead: The Quest to Build the Perfect Weapon in the Age of Modern Warfare, Jeffrey Stern tells the story of Paveway through interconnected stories of Nazis, Kennedys, Operation Paperclip, and Walt Disney, along with the Apollo mission and the space shuttle Challenger disaster. Paveway inadvertently sparked the personal computing revolution and the adoption of GPS, and ushered in the era of modern warfare. Join New America's Future Security Program as they welcome Jeffrey E. Stern for a discussion of his book and the history behind the first “smart” bombs. Participants:Jeffrey E.
