为什么值得读
- 详述破解并干扰德国无线电导航信标的内幕
- 记录如何识破敌方技术并层层反制的工程博弈
- 揭露欺骗敌方雷达与轰炸定位的真实机密计谋
《绝密战争》是 R V 琼斯对自己在 1939 年至 1945 年间参与英国科学情报工作的记述。他的职责是预判德国将科学应用于战争的方式，以便英国能在其新式武器投入使用之前加以反制。他的大部分工作涉及无线电导航，如“波束之战”，也涉及雷达，如盟军轰炸攻势、诺曼底登陆的准备以及海战。他还负责英国针对 V-1（飞弹）和 V-2（火箭）报复性武器的情报工作，尽管所幸这

另外，同一路数的，我强烈推荐 R.V. 琼斯（R.V. Jones）的《Most Secret War》（绝密战争），讲述了他二战期间在英国担任首席科学顾问（Chief Boffin）的经历。一章接一章全都在讲怎么摸清德国人在技术前沿到底在搞什么鬼，然后压他们一头。里面有大量的工程……
Also, in the same vein, I highly recommend R.V. Jones' 'Most Secret War' on his experience as Chief Boffin in the UK during WWII. Chapter after chapter devoted to figuring out what the Germans were up to on the technology front, then one-upping them. Lots of engineering…
……把情报回传给德国人。结果就是，瞄准手始终没能真正搞明白怎么精准测距。炸弹开始落到伦敦东南部去了。关于这件事更详尽的细节，可以在 R V·琼斯的《Most Secret War》里看到，他参与了各种各样用来迷惑敌人的计谋。非常值得一读。在电影《Triple Cross》中，埃迪·查普曼（即 Agent ZigZag，双面特工“之字折线”）由克里斯托弗·普卢默饰演。它好像在……
…information back to the Germans. As a result, the aimers never really got a grip on ranging accurately. The bombs started landing to the south east of London. There's considerably more detail about this in Most Secret War by R V Jones, who was involved in all sorts of ruses to confuse the enemy. Well worth a read. Eddie Chapman (Agent ZigZag) was played by Christopher Plummer in the film Triple Cross. It seems to be on…
R.V. 琼斯博士写的《Most Secret War》也很不错——它涵盖了二战期间英国科学情报部门的作用，以及“光束之战”（War of the Beams），也就是对德国无线电导航信标的破坏和干扰……
"Most Secret War" by Dr. R.V. Jones is also good -- it covers the role of British Scientific Intelligence during the war, and the "War of the Beams", which was the subverting/jamming of the German navigation radio beacon…
……区分它和一个正常工作的基站，最后得出结论：这种方法行不通。记不清我在哪看到的出处了，随手翻了下索引，看来不是出自 R.V. 琼斯那本精彩绝伦的《Most Secret War》。
…distinguish between it and a functioning station, and concluded that approach wasn't going to work. Can't remember my source for it, a quick check of the index indicates it wasn't R.V. Jones' superb Most Secret War.
……所以在某些情况下，我们现在讨论的其实依然是当年的掩护说法，要么是为了掩护机载雷达的使用，要么是为了掩护破译密码。虽然现在看挺老了，但琼斯教授的《Most Secret War》里有一手的好记录：https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reginald_Victor_Jones 我猜可能大家不太熟知、但那本书里有写的一点是：二战后期英国许多夜间轰炸行动之所以成功，是因为……
…So in some cases we are still discussing what were really cover stories, either for the use of airborne radar or code breaking. Quite old now but a decent first-hand account can be read in Prof Jones "Most Secret War" : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reginald_Victor_Jones Something I suspect not widely known, and covered in that book is that many night time british bombing raids later in the war were successful because…
说到这儿，如果你还没读过的话，R V·琼斯的《Most Secret War》写得棒极了——讲述了雷达研发的猫鼠游戏，作者本人可是亲历者：https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0033806QY/
In this vein, R V Jones "Most Secret War" is great if you haven't read it -- about the cat & mouse game of radar development, from a guy deeply involved: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0033806QY/
