A rare insight into the working of the radio proximity fuze developed and used during World War II, 1944 with key contributions from General Electric.
Inside the cutaway, the system reveals a miniature radar set powered by a fragile glass electrolyte ampoule that shattered under launch acceleration, activating the battery and bringing the fuze online in flight. Once armed, it emitted a continuous radio signal and measured reflections from nearby targets, triggering detonation when an aircraft entered roughly the 20 to 70 foot range, where fragmentation effects were most effective.
It costed about 18 to 20 dollars per unit in 1945 at wartime production scale, that still feels strikingly advanced even 75+ years later.

@MARVELCosmicInv My guess.... Reed seems like an easy slam dunk and Antman/wasp or Clint/Kate for more Avengers rep (gotta get that movie synergy) or they could go Adam Warlock and Gamora/Drax since only one Guardian of the Galaxy seems low for cosmic nonsense.
