No, Tizard was right, as it turned out, but it was not at all clear to the Government or the Forces at the time. There was a great deal of doubt, all the way up to Churchill. The technical capabilities of the bombing campaign were in severe doubt, quite rightly, despite Harris

Before the Manhattan Project, in 1940, Britain sent a team of scientists to the US carrying its most valuable military secrets: radar, jet engines, and nuclear research. The Tizard Mission may have been the most important technology transfer in history. Now US goes reverse

Blackett agreed with Tizard.

Not hindsight at all. Tizard had warned clearly, when the policy was proposed, that it would be ineffective. They knew.
Replying to @ClarkeMicah
Last time, that is 100% hindsight. The intelligence assessment DURING THE WAR was that the bombing campaign was being effective and the means still weren't developed to take out individual factories etc until towards the end of the war./ end

They were in 1940. By 1944, the USA were far ahead, due to the British Tizard mission and the British Tube Alloys program, European scientists who fled to the USA and the massive industrial effort of the Manhattan project, while Germany was being bombed to rubble.

That was true in 1940. By 1944, the USA were far ahead, thanks to the British Tizard mission and their "Tube alloys" program", thanks to European scientists who fled to the USA, and thanks to the massive industrial effort of Project Manhattan, while Germany was being bombed.

.@martins99122029 Well, they knew from the Butt Report that they weren't hitting anything. Air support was desperately needed in the Battle of the Atlantic. The building of the Bomber fleet, and the terrible death rates of its crews, were deeply damaging to other parts of the war effort. Tizard said it wouldn't work. So why do it at all?
Replying to @ClarkeMicah
You only develop long range escorts when you recognise their necessity. If you think what you are doing is working you don't divert resources to it. I think you don't give enough credit to e.g. Pathfinders, electronic aids to navigation as attempts to make bombing more precise.

Also, probably one of the more obscure but infinitely interesting aspects of British contribution in the Tizard mission.

A new national centre focused on the development and responsible use of artificial intelligence in policing in England and Wales has been launched. The APCC’s Joint Leads on Performance, Data and New Technology Ethics, John Tizard and Chris Nelson, have welcomed the capabilities PoliceAI will bring as part of a modernised police service.

Do you think he can help UK claim back the tens of trillions £ added to USA ecconomy derived from the Tizard misson? Or maybe the hundreds of tonnes in gold for rust bucket destroyers?
