German Aircraft in the Great War 1914-1918
Overview
A primary‑source study of German aviation in WWI—from Johannisthal and the rise of Fokker to the factory floor, supply chains, and frontline units. Using Allied intelligence, translated German records, and Inter‑Allied Control Commission inspections, it explains how Germany built and fielded aircraft from Albatros and LVG to giant Staaken bombers—and why the Fokker D.VII was singled out in the Armistice.
