William George Armstrong, 1st BaronArmstrong (November 26, 1810 – December 27, 1900) was an English industrialist, the effective founder of the Armstrong Whitworth manufacturing empire.
In 1847, Armstrong founded the Elswick works at Newcastle, to produce hydraulic machinery, cranes and bridges, soon to be followed by artillery, notably the Armstrong breech-loading gun, which re-equipped the British army after the Crimean War.
Rifled and throwing a shell-shaped projectile, the Armstrong gun is regarded as marking the birth of modern artillery.
