Electricity extends fortifications into modern warfare
The Scientific American notes rapid growth of electric power in coastal fortifications. Generators, electric fans, motors for gun training, ammo belts, searchlights, and telegraph links expand control and response. Wireless signaling and telautographs shorten reaction times, with accumulators ensuring constant power. The fortress evolves into a largely electric system.
