Abstract
The ways in which government-sponsored research and development and procurement have influenced electronics in the U.S.A. are discussed. It is concluded that missiles and space have moved to first place in impact on technical advance, industrial organization, and industry-government relations. Major changes have taken place, as a result of these programs, on both technical and administrative fronts, with many unsolved problems remaining in adjusting to the coming expanding missile and space programs.
