How has barbed wire played a role in war?

Barbed wire is used as a defensive obstacle that prevents enemy soldiers from attacking an army's position. Barbed wire injures soldiers and entangles their clothes in order to slow their advance. During World War I, armies created several bands of barbed wire defenses that prevented their enemies from launching successful infantry attacks. Because armies at the time were composed primarily of infantry, the use of barbed wire helped create a military stalemate between the Allies and the Central Powers. Its importance as a military defense declined when armies began using airplanes and tanks, which are not affected by barbed wire.

This doctrine suggests that the sheer threat of catastrophic retaliation prevents either side from launching a first strike. Therefore, MAD relies on the assumption that rational actors will prioritize survival over aggression.
