During World War I, submachine guns were still in their infancy, and only a few prototypes were developed. The most notable was the Italian Villar-Perosa, which was designed in 1915 and used primarily by aircraft and some infantry units. The German MP18, introduced in 1918, is often recognized as the first true submachine gun, but it saw limited use before the war ended. Overall, submachine guns played a minimal role in WWI compared to later conflicts.
