The Second World War was a war waged not just by generals and frontline soldiers. It was fought also by scientists, engineers and inventors. The ability to marshal resources, to develop new war machines and weapons and to produce them swiftly and efficiently was the key to victory. WW2 was won not on the battlefield, but in the factories.

00:00:00 Rolls Royce – The Engine that Won the War
The Rolls Royce Merlin Engine powered the Spitfire, the Hurricane, the Mosquito, the Lancaster Bomber and the P51 Mustang. It was arguably the best engine of WW2. But when it first came into service, it was a disaster. This is the story of how RollsRoyce developed and ultimately massproduced the engine that helped the Allies dominate the skies.

00:42:32 Enterprise: The Rise of the Aircraft Carrier
In the history of the US Navy, one name stands out above all others: the USS Enterprise. The history of the Enterprise is the history of the rise of the aircraft carrier in US naval history. She is the most decorated ship in US Naval history, and played a part in every key engagement during the Pacific War. But her story is also a story of construction. And it shows how the Americans were able to use factories to win the Pacific War.

01:24:52 Skoda: The Factory that Fought Back
In March 1939, German troops marched into Czechoslovakia. Ostensibly, this was part of the Anschluss that reunited German nationals to the Fatherland; but Adolf Hitler had far more sinister motives than that. He wanted the Skoda Works, one of the largest arms factories in Europe. His righthandman, Hermann Göring, put his own brother Albert in charge of the factory. It was one of the worst decisions he ever made, because Albert: the ‘Good Nazi’, would use his position to not only help free Jews, but sabotage the Nazi war effort.
