Airplane
org/wwi-
Airplanes were introduced by both
the Germans and the Britain's. An
airplane was a one to two seat pro-
peller plane with an equipped ma-
chine gun attached to it. They both
used aircraft at that time, but it was
originally only used for observations.
Later airplanes were used in combat
and had little effect on the war.

 Poison Gas
Poison Gas was introduced by the
Germans. It was used to blind or
choke enemies, which caused horri-
ble pain such as leaving burns and
blisters. Later that year the Allies be-
gan using this weapon as well. This
type of weaponry became know as
the most dreaded hazards of the war.
Zeppelins
Also in 1915 the Germans used these
large gas filled balloons to bomb the
English Coast . These zeppelins re-
placed the first tanks , because the
tanks moved very slow and broke
down easily.
U-boats
The U-Boats were first used
by the Germans which
caused a huge amount of
damage to the Allies side.
These boats sunk the mer-
chant ships that carried sup-
plies for Britain. Then the Al-
lies side struck back with
their creation of the Con-
voys.
Convoys
The Convoys were introduced by the Al-
lies. This invention is what grouped the
merchant ships together to protect the
war ships. This invention is how the Unit-
ed States were brought into war.
Automatic Machine Gun
The British side introduced the automatic
machine gun, which was a mounted gun
that fired bullets continuously . This made
war easier because less soldiers would
have to carry guns.. This invention
helped create a stalemate, and created a
difficult pathway so not a lot of people
could get
in.
