But for all the possibilities that this “Computer War” offered,
Operation Desert Storm was not won by smart weaponry,
alone. Despite the “science fiction”-like technology
deployed, 90 percent of the pieces of ammunition used in
Desert Storm were actually “dumb weapons”. The bombs,
which weren’t guided by lasers or satellites, were lucky to
get within half a kilometer of their targets after they were
dumped from planes. While dumb bombs might not have
been exciting enough to make the headlines during the
attack, they were cheaper to produce and could be counted
on to work. But frequency of use doesn’t change why
history will remember Desert Storm for its smart weapons,
rather than its dumb ones.
