German military technology during World War II German military technology during World War II increased greatly in terms of sophistication . Nazi Germany put much effort into developing weapons , particularly aircraft , rockets , submarines and tanks during the war . Land systems . Infantry weapons . Germany developed numerous new weapons during the war , including the first assault rifle in the world . In 1940 , Germany developed the Gewehr 43 , a semi - automatic rifle to replace bolt - action rifles for better performance in infantry . In 1944 , Germany developed the first assault rifle , the Sturmgewehr 44 which proved to be widely successful against the allies . However , the late production and usage of the gun was not enough to turn the allies near the end of the war . German soldiers used the more common MP40 , which was an easy to operate submachine gun , designed with almost no recoil , and easier to manage compared to other submachine guns during the war . Armoured vehicles . Germany recognized the importance of tanks at the beginning of the war . Heinz Guderian , one of Germany ' s best commanders during World War II largely helped the development of Panzer forces and the organization of tanks into divisions . Hitler at first developed tanks to be used as a propaganda tool , since many thought them to be impressive . However , the effectiveness and power that tanks held caused further development for more powerful tanks . German tanks often outclassed all allied tanks , except the Russian T - 34 , and proved very hard to destroy . German tanks had the most armor and often had larger and stronger guns than allied tanks . The largest and strongest German tank was the Tiger II and its size , armor , and gun size gave Germany the advantage over almost all allied tanks , especially on the western front where the US and British had no equally matched tanks . Because Tiger II tanks were developed late into the war , they were sent directly to combat without much testing . The Tiger II had many problems including engine overheating , steering difficulty , and a high fuel consumption rate . In addition , the detail and the intricate parts of the tank made production inefficient . Aircraft . German technicians developed the first jet in the world , the Messerschmitt Me 262 in 1944 . Too late to make an impact against the allied air force , its development led to postwar development of jets . Missiles . Germany also developed the first cruise missile s ( V - 1 ) and rocket - powered ballistic missile s ( V - 2 ) . Though their impact on the course of the war was primarily psychological , after the war , Allied powers , especially the Americans , profited immensely from captured German technology and expertise in the development of rocket vehicles capable of space travel .

Maol Choluim II , Earl of Lennox Mormaer Maol Choluim II of Lennox ( anglicised Malcolm II of Lennox ) ( died 19 July 1333 ) was mormaer ( the Celtic equivalent of an earl ) of Lennox from 1303 to his death . He was allowed to succeed to the Mormaerdom only on giving homage to King Edward I of England and attending Edward ' s court . It was perhaps to ease this process , that his mother Marjorie became an informant of the English crown . Maol Choluim assisted Edward initially by raising men from his Mormaerdom . Nevertheless , Maol Choluim ' s Bruce loyalties were the same as his father Maol Choluim I ' s , and this was keenly displayed when he attended the coronation of Robert the Bruce . Maol Choluim was in fact one of the most loyal followers of Bruce , and was rewarded by both Bruce and by later pro - Bruce writers such as John Barbour and John of Fordun , who wrote much praise of him . Robert even retired in Lennox country , at the settlement of Cardross . He had two known sons by an unknown wife , his successor Domhnall and Muireadhach . Maol Choluim died in 1333 fighting for the Bruce cause against the Anglo - Balliol alliance at Battle of Halidon Hill .

Harry Tate Ronald Macdonald Hutchinson ( 4 July 1872 - 14 February 1940 ) , professionally known as Harry Tate , was an English comedian who performed both in the music hall s and in films . Tate worked for Henry Tate & Sons , Sugar Refiners before going on the stage , and took his stage name from them . Career . Tate made his debut at the Oxford Music Hall in 1895 , and became well known for his impressions of performers such as Dan Leno , George Robey , and Eugene Stratton . Success came with his comedy sketch , " Motoring " , in which he played the part of a new car owner trying to repair it . His other sketches included " Running an Office " , " Billiards " and " Fishing " . Several catch phrase s he used became popular in Britain in the 1930s , including " Goodbye - eee " , " How ' s your Father " ( used as an escape clause when he was unable to answer a question ) and " I don ' t think " , used sarcastically ( as in " He ' s a nice chap – I don ' t think " ) . He used his bristling moustache to express all kinds of emotion by twitching or moving it . In February 1940 Tate suffered a stroke and died , aged 67 , shortly after ; while in bed between the two events he told reporters that he had been injured during an air raid , and because they failed to realise that he was joking this is often given as the cause of his death . He is buried at St Mary ' s , Northolt . For a time , his son Ronnie continued the act as " Harry Tate junior " . Slang usage . The phrase " Harry Tate " entered the 20th century English ( British ) language as slang , initially as a nickname for the Royal Aircraft Factory R . E . 8 biplane . When used as an adjective it came to mean " amateur " or even " incompetent " . In cockney rhyming slang it could mean a " plate " or " worried " ( from the expression " in a state " ) . In the British merchant navy ( merchant marine ) it is used to refer the chief officer ( second to the captain of a ship ) whose title in official documents is ' Mate ' . This use is believed to have come from the London docks where the majority of the workforce were Cockneys . During the First World War , the Royal Naval Patrol Service - staffed mostly by naval reservists and using out - dated and poorly armed vessels , such as requisitioned trawlers crewed by ex - fishermen - came to bear the unofficial title " Harry Tate ' s Navy " . In recognition of the gallant efforts of the Royal Naval Volunteer Reservists who participated in the famous Zeebrugge Raid , which took place on St George ' s Day , 23 April 1918 they were never called " Harry Tates Navy " again .

Westinghouse AN / FPS - 27 Radar The AN / FPS - 27 Radar was a Long Range search radar used by the United States Air Force Air Defense Command . Westinghouse built an FD search radar designed to operate in the S - band at 2322 to 2670 MHz . The radar was designed to have a maximum range of 220 nautical miles and search to an altitude of 150 , 000 feet . System problems required several modifications at the test platform located at Crystal Springs , Mississippi . Once these problems were solved , the first of twenty units in the continental United States became operational at Charleston , Maine , in 1963 . The last unit was installed at Bellefontaine , Ohio , a year later . In the early 1970s , AN / FPS - 27 radar stations that had not been shut down received a modification ( solid state circuitry replacing vacuum tubes ) that improved reliability and saved on maintenance costs .
