Is this a complete sentence?

Is this a complete sentence? "There was however, during the war the development of degaussing."
I'm not sure if this is an independent or dependent clause.
thanks

Hi jumbohumble, welcome to the Forums.

Your sentence is an independent clause.

And a comma at least, or preferably reorganization, would help it:

There was, however, during the war the development of degaussing.

During the war, however, degaussing was developed.
