11 a shot in the arm

стимул [букв. укол в руку; первонач. жаргон наркоманов]

Over all, nuclear power seems to be the shot in the arm which the Navy needed to keep it in business after it squandered much time and energy fighting the Air Force in a bitter interservice rivalry. (R. E. Lapp, ‘Atoms and People’, ch. XI) — В общем создается впечатление, что ядерная энергия является для военно-морского флота тем живительным источником, из которого он черпает силы после изнурительной и бесплодной борьбы с ВВС.

Indirectly, competition from oil was a "shot in the arm" for the coal industry as it forced the industry to consider how it could improve the technical efficiency of raising coal. (‘The New Horizon’) — Конкуренция со стороны нефтяной промышленности косвенно стимулировала развитие угольной промышленности, способствуя улучшению технологии добычи угля.
