The naval sea mine!
Continuing yet further extracts with my commentary from original articles as seen at the isegoria.net Internet web site topic the Great War.
"A Rivalry in Invention"
"Ivan Bloch describes the rivalry in invention in naval warfare leading into the Great War"
WITH SPECIFIC REGARD TO THE NAVAL SEA MINE:
"Would it not be possible to direct mines underneath these immense ships, and destroy them by means of powerful explosions in the vicinity of weakly defended parts? For a long time the application of this idea was unsuccessful, many obstacles had to be overcome, and only in recent times has the question been successfully resolved."
See previous blog entry the efficacy of the naval sea mine:

NAVAL SEA MINES SIXTY TIME MORE EFFECTIVE COST-EFFICIENCY WISE AS OTHER CONVENTIONAL WEAPONS OF NAVAL WARFARE!!
"Bloch was a financier turned political-economist, in case that wasn’t clear."
BLOCH UNDERSTOOD PERFECTLY WELL TECHNOLOGY AND THE MILITARY APPLICATION THEREOF IN A MANNER FLAG OFFICES OF THE PERIOD DID NOT? AND WHY IS THAT?
