How did they communicate in aircrafts in World War 1?

Answer 1

Answer:At the beginning of WW1 peter baggleys were first used as observers to see the enemy moves. Nobody saw them as weapons and they were often attached to the army. Then some pilots added machineguns to their planes which led to the creation of the fighter plane. Early in the war fighter planes could be dispersed but later they were organised in big formations.There were also bombers with rudimentary means and the aircraft carriers appeared.

The first aircraft were unarmed and used for observations. Most carried an Officer who acted as an observer. They began to fly longer and further over enemy territory so they began to arm the observer. He also would operate a camera to take photos of the enemy troops and supplies. Some early bombers were developed that were large multi-engine aircraft that could carry bombs long distances. Russia and Italy made some of the first large bombers. As the war progressed, the aircraft replaced the Zeppelin as the long-range bomber. Eventually fast fighter aircraft were developed that had guns that could fire forward, through the propeller (syncronised machine-guns). These were used to attack the enemy's observation balloons, other aircraft and even troops on the ground. Seaplanes were also used heavily along the northern coast of Europe and at the Austria-Italian border. Some were small observation aircraft but others were large torpedo planes. Many of these would take off from aircraft carriers with ramps put across their guns to`kick' the aircraft into the air.

Answer 2

In order to communicate with those on the ground, the pilot or observer would have to write a message on cloth or paper, attach it to something heavy, such as a spanner, so that it wouldn't blow away, and drop it. Communicating with other aircraft could only be done by means of hand-signals.

Answer 3

People often communicated with each other through letters sent through the mail during World War 2. Other common forms of communication also included telephone calls, and telegrams.

Answer 4

During World War II soldiers communicated by way of walkie talkie, letter and messenger. The addition of electronic communication was a boon to the movement of troops.

Answer 5

they used radios but they were big radios
