摘要: U.S. and Allied bombing of Germany during World War II affords an invaluable case study in target systems analysis. An examination of the German transportation system reveals that it grew ever-more important within the German war economy. Integral to the German economy from the wars beginning, its importance grew due to German wartime adaptations. Despite this growth of importance, the U.S. and Allies continued to assign it an ever-lower priority. This is attributable to Allied difficulties in collecting and analyzing the German transportation system, as well as operational considerations driving a higher prioritization of other target systems. This case study reveals relevant lessons for modern target system analysts and operational planners
