development of other technologies that had to be outfitted to exemplify the aircrafts capabilities. Major impacts on carriers directly corresponded to the innovation of jet aircraft. “The potential of high-performance jet aircraft could not be realized by navies until the aircraft carriers also benefited from new applications of technology.” (Lautenschlager, 1984, p. 49) .
