Were fighter jets used in World War 1?
No, the jet engine had not been invented yet, so there were no "fighter jets"
Why was the innovation of fighter jets important to the development of war strategy?
Innovation of fighter jets leads to advanced warfare. Innovated fighter jets means more safety features and that means less deaths.
When were fighter jets first used in war?
Fighter jets were first used in war during World War II. The Royal Air Force's Supermarine Spitfire and the German Messerschmitt Bf 109 were among the first dedicated fighter aircraft that played significant roles in aerial combat. However, the first instance of jet-powered fighters in combat occurred later, with the German Me 262 entering service in 1944. This marked a significant advancement in aerial warfare technology.
How have fighter jets affected the war in Iraq?
Not much. Iraq didnt have much of an air force left after the Gulf War, with basically no fighter planes. Most US operations are as fighter-bombers, doing support for ground troops.
What do jets do?
Jets are used in War purposes. The Stealth ones are used to spy other countries.

What do fighter planes look like?
Characteristics of a Fighter PlaneToday, a fighter plane is usually a jet aircraft. The characteristics of a fighter jet were established back in World War 2, when Britain and Germany made the first jets. One characteristic of the fighter jet was that their wings are swept back. Older airplanes had straight wings, even though they might get smaller further out at the tip. The swept-back wings reduced the drag caused by the voritces at the wing tips. This allowed the jets to fly faster.Most fighter jets have their jet engines mounted inside the fuselage; as opposed to mounted under the wings. The first German fighter jet had wing-mounted engines. Very few fighter jets continued with this design.Most fighter jets have a pilot (or 2 pilots) sitting in a cockpit mounted on top of the fuselage. This provides better visibility so the pilots can watch for enemy aircraft during combat. Bombers will have the cockpit buried down in the fuselage(one exception is the B-47 bomber that had a cockpit like a fighter jet).How to spot a Fighter Plane?Modern jet aircraft have changed dramatically. So this question is difficult to answer. Some fighter jets server in many different roles: fighter, reconnisance, bomber. Some fighter jets have 2-crewmen and 2 engines and are quite large where others are a single pilot and very small. The most recent ones have stealth technology that gives their wings and fuselage very unique shapes.
What were the theories of the use of air power in World War 1?
Before World War 1, airplanes were used for recreation. However, during World War 1 airplanes were used for reconnaissance and spying on the enemies. Airplanes were also used as fighter jets and as bombers. Airplanes changed warfare greatly and allowed for blitz attacks and air warfare.

Grumman fighter plane?
Grumman made the cat family: Wildcat, Hellcat, and the Bearcat single engined WWII fighter planes. During Korea they made the Panther & Cougar jets. After the Viet War they made the F14 Tomcat jet.
Why doesn't a warship sink?
war ships are designed in such a way, that they can handle the weight of fighter jets and all the heavy machinery used on these ships.if you will check the figures so you will see, war ships are 1000 times expensive then the cargo and tanker ships.because these ships have capability to perform these tasks.
How many different kinds of us fighter planes were used in world war 2?
