Radar, radios and the black boxes inside everything. Build the equipment that sees and hears for the forces.
Radar changes the war before the war begins, and the firms that can build it to the scientists' drawings have more work than they can staff. Contracts are for development and small batches, the designs change every few months, and everything is secret. After the war the same firms build the computers, missiles and avionics of the Cold War, on cost-plus contracts that the auditors read closely.
