- In WWI large-scale aerial warfare
- Small planes used to scout enemies location
-  Later they added machine guns to the planes for aerial combat (known as a dogfight)
- Germany used huge airships called zeppelins to raid over England at first
- The zeppelins were made with a metal fabric and filled with gasbags full of hydrogen
- They also gave the plane the ability to fly higher than most other ones that made them difficult to shoot down.
-  The zeppelins had a very poor ability to aim with strong winds that would blow them of course
- Zeppelins were replaced with multi-engine bomber planes towards the end of the war

Heavy artillery guns were also used widely in World War I for the first time

They were difficult to use and very heavy

Like cannons, these guns could fire large shells over long distance, usually projecting them in an arc to land on the target
