He added that the atom bomb made invasion a thing of the past. Half-a-dozen atom bombs would make hostile entry into any continent an impossibility. The new bomb had entirely changed the role of navies. Even this war had shown the battleship was fast becoming out of date in sea battles. It did little except get sunk.
