When the war first began, aircraft played a small role in warfare, but, by the end of the war, the air force has become an important branch of the armed forces. The first use of airplanes in World War I was for reconnaissance. As the war progressed, both sides began to use aircraft to drop bombs on strategic enemy locations. An interesting fact about these warplanes is The first aircraft carriers were constructed during World War I. The first time a carrier-based aircraft attacked a land target was in July of 1918 near the end of the war. Because of these aircrafts, there were more casualties than previous wars from the bombing the aircrafts sent, and enemy pilots began to fight each other in the air.

The flamethrower, which brought terror to French and British soldiers when used by the German army in the early phases of the First World War in 1914 and 1915, the basic idea of a flamethrower is to spread fire by launching burning fuel. Having tested the Flammenwerfer in 1900 the German army deployed it for use in three specialist battalions from 1911 onwards. The first notable use of the Flammenwerfer came in a surprise attack launched by the Germans upon the British at Hooge in Flanders Springing forward July 30, 1915.The effect of the dangerous nature of the surprise attack proved terrifying to the British opposition.
They were undeniably useful when used at short-range, but were of limited wider effectiveness, especially once the British and French had overcome their initial alarm at their use.Quite aside from the worries of handling the device - it was entirely feasible that the cylinder carrying the fuel might unexpectedly explode.The British, intrigued by the possibilities offered by flamethrowers, experimented with their own models. built directly into a forward trench constructed in No Man's Land a mere 60 yards from the German line. By the close of the war flamethrower use had been extended to use on tanks, a policy carried forward to World War Two.  Flame-throwing equipment, albeit somewhat refined, continues in use to the present day.

Battle of the Somme."  Great Britain had over 10. At the time other country's were developing how to make tanks and send them over seas. The reason why tanks were so important was because they were powerful.

Although Germany didn't invent the first flamethrower, this specific type was the first of its kind. Germany ended up launching a surprise attack with these "fire guns." Because of how dangerous it was, it meant that the opponents were constantly falling back to prepare troops to fill in as back up. This weapon was almost a delicacy, seeing as there wasn't enough fuel to mass produce large amounts of this expensive item. Unfortunately, this item did not have a very large range and was also dangerous to the person operating it. All in all, this item had a large impact on WW1. ]]> 2019-11-11 14:22:34 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/409467381 Dexter https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/409467519 Submarines]]> 2019-11-11 14:22:48 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/409467519 Armani https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/409991457 In WW1 the soldiers used mustard gas forcing another type of technology to be used and that technology was gas masks. Gas Masks were not only for people but for dogs as well (the picture below) the gas masks filtered out the tear gas into breathable air so that the soldiers would not die and they can infiltrate enemy sides without fatal damage to them. ]]> 2019-11-12 14:57:57 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/409991457 America https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/410319020 https://www.autodraw.com/share/5EF6NJ23ONGB]]> 2019-11-13 00:00:36 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/410319020 Submarines 1636614 https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/410330654 Submarines played a vital part in any war and they still do. They are able to fight ships battleships without the battleships even knowing. Technology has greatly improved over time and now they have sensors and other things to help prevent submarine attacks. During world war 1, submarine attacks were so deadly that unrestricted submarine attacks were seen as a war crime. During the war, u-boats killed more than 15,000 allied sailors. ]]> 2019-11-13 00:45:51 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/410330654 Mia https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/411002514 2019-11-14 04:21:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/411002514 Olivia https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/411472308 2019-11-14 20:09:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/411472308 https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/411788553 Adrian V]]> 2019-11-15 14:19:22 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/411788553 aileen https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/416273577 2019-11-25 17:17:37 UTC https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/416273577 Trevor https://padlet.com/sd54/zpcpq0mg1hqu/wish/423268862 A new type of weapon/technology In WW1 was tanks.
