History:

When the World War I broke out, Zeppelins carried out most of the German bombing attacks against En gland during the early years of the war. The contending air forces had been trained and equipped primarily for observation, but it quickly became apparent that the airplane had other military uses. Bombers were of many types and ranged in size from observation planes to giants designed especially to carry heavy loads over great distance. Bombers were generally slower than fighters, but some such as the German "Gothas" and the British "Handley Pages", often operat ed at night. Bombloads varied with the distance of the target from the aircraft's base. By 1917 the German "Gothas" were able to bomb London in daylight; at the very end of the war the British were just beginning to produce the "Handley Page V-1500" intended for bombing Berlin.
