In World War I, airplanes were used for reconnaissance, bombing, intercepting, and (especially seaplanes) for maritime patrols.
This was the first war where aircraft became a primary weapon, able to attack enemy supply areas well behind the front lines. This also heralded the advent of air-to-air combat (dogfights) between aircraft of opposing forces.
In the early stages of ww1 planes were only used for recon missions and had no machine guns on them so to shoot down a plane pilots would have to use pistols later on machine guns were installed but they had a major problem the bullets would go into the propeller so they would end up shooting them self down!. Then a timer system was invented which allowed bullets to go past the propeller safely this invention allowed dogfights to happen also it meant that the planes could attack trenches. They could attempt to drop bombs bricks and knives on enemy trenches but this wasn't very effective because they had no to be dropped by hand and the wind would usually blow them off course
generally to drop bombs on people's houses, but they had a warning siren if airplanes were above which made people go down to their cellar and protect themselves in a metal cage thing, but don't know what its called.
Before World War 1, airplanes were used for recreation. However, during World War 1 airplanes were used for reconnaissance and spying on the enemies. Airplanes were also used as fighter jets and as bombers. Airplanes changed warfare greatly and allowed for blitz attacks and air warfare.
WW1 saw the first large-scale use of both poison gas and airplanes; however, machineguns had been used in several colonial wars over the previous 20 years, most notably at the Battle of Omdurman.
Airplanes were not introduced in WW1, their use predates the war. Many countries had fledling air corps years before WW1. Aircraft were used for bombing missions as early as Aug of 1914. Tanks, however, were new.
35 factories churned out 48,537 airplanes throughout the war. Note, this figure is spread out over 1914-1918. The Austro-Hungarian Empire produced 5,431. At the end of the war Germany had 2,390 aircraft at the front lines, Austria had so few, the numbers aren't listed. Out of that 48 thousand, 27,637 were shot down, crashed and damaged.
there was no world war 11
there were no airplanes in the word war 1. __ The use of airplanes in the military pre-dates WW1. Airplanes were used for recon, bombing missions and fighters.
i think why they use airplanes toprotect them
Yes Germany did use tanks during world war 1, they use tanks alone with airplanes, gas masks, and submarines

Both.
Only on the carriers!
The military veteran had flown older airplanes during the war.
Machine guns, tanks, airplanes, chemical warfare
The first use of airplanes was for pleasure. Flying around above the trees must have been a huge novelty and exhilarating fun. The first practical use of airplanes was for reconnaissance during the first world war. Manned and tethered balloons had been used for this purpose already and it was only natural for airplanes to be used for this purpose as well. Its to make people feel good in the sky.
there were no airplanes in the civil war........ Both sides however did use balloons for observation of each others troop movements, but they had little effect and are not often spoke of
To defeat the Germans and throw grenades from their planes onto citys
1. First mass use of flying machines (airplanes). 2. Flying machines (airplanes) made from wood and cloth. 3. Before guns were added to the airplane design, pilots threw objects like bricks and grenades at enemy aircraft. 4. Germany was the first country to use airplanes in the war.
