Kill boxes partition theaters of operations into three-dimensional cubes.
Evidence
But those squares are also, and above all, cubes. This is the central concept of the “kill box,” a notion that emerged in the early 1990s: “The kill box is graphically portrayed by a solid black line defining the area with diagonal black lines within.” One should imagine a theater of operations portrayed on a screen in 3-D as a set of cubes laid out on a surface divided into squares. — Grégoire Chamayou, A Theory of the Drone, 238
