Pitch Black - America's Tiny Secret Weapon in the Naval Battle at Guadalcanal

During the Guadalcanal campaign of World War II, the United States Armed Forces fought the Imperial Japanese Navy to recapture the Solomon Islands in the Pacific. But what started as an amphibious landing turned into a series of massive naval battles.

During the offensive, the Japanese tried to find weaknesses in the American fleet but kept falling short against a much superior force time and time again.

One of the key elements of the Allied success was the implementation of new technology that gave them the upper hand.

The knowledge obtained would prove instrumental during the Second Naval Battle of Guadalcanal, as a lone battleship faced one of Japan's finest vessels.
