> Military Books > General Books > Military History Books
The First World War was to introduce many innovative and
novel ways of killing the enemy. It was the first truly
modern war fought with modern equipment, and for the first
time the newfangled aircraft were to play their part. Of the
57 nations involved in the First World War, only 14 had a
naval air force of any description. The first aircraft were
flimsy and fragile, but by late 1914 they had progressed
from limited reconnaissance duties to an offensive role. By
the end of the war, aviation was an important element of the
modern navy. The first aircraft carriers appeared and it was
obvious that the days of the capital ship were coming to an
end. The First Naval Air War is the story of the development
of naval aviation from those fledgling squadrons of 1914 to
the major weapon in the armoury of naval warfare in only
five years.
