Industrial web theory is the military concept that an enemy's industrial power can be attacked at nodes of vulnerability, and thus the enemy's ability to wage a lengthy war can be severely limited, as well as his morale—his will to resist.[1] The theory was formulated by American airmen at the Air Corps Tactical School (ACTS) in the 1930s.
The term "industrial web theory" cannot be found in any official United States Army Air Corps (USAAC) doctrine.[2] Instead, the term was coined in the 1930s by Donald Wilson, an instructor at ACTS, to cover the concept then under development.
