NOTES ON WW1 AIRPLANES: The airplane had existed for little more than a decade by the outbreak of World War I, but both sides of the conflict quickly recognized the advantages of creating flying war machines and worked relentlessly throughout the war to develop faster, bigger and deadlier fighters and bombers. The concept of “air superiority” was unheard of before 1914, but winning the war in the skies became a tactical necessity by the end of the Great War. By the end of World War I, it was “indisputable, ” says Guttman (Jon Guttman, an historian of military aviation who’s authored more than a dozen books about World War I aircraft and fighter pilots) that airplanes were the weapon of the future. By 1918, Allied bombers were already flying in group formations to attack German munitions factories along the French border, and German fighters were deployed in force to wage epic air battles. “There was no such thing as a fighter plane until 1915, ” Source: www.history.com/news/world-war-i-aviation-airplanes See Alamy ref: 2J98C7N for reverse of this postcard with interesting postmark that promotes feeding the guns with war bonds.
