Fighter planes first caught my interest when I read a book about fictional fighter pilots during the world wars. I will give you a synopsis of the book later
Fighter Planes History
Models & Use Throughout Wars
Planes have been an important part of our history ever since the first propeller powered plane, created by the Wright Brothers came into existence in 1903.
As many other scientific discoveries, the airplane too was quickly co-opted for warfare.
Fighter aircraft were first used, in the Italo-Turkish war, in Libya, on October 23rd 1911. The flight was a one-hour long, reconnaissance mission conducted by the Italians. This flight was over enemy posts in Libya. A reconnaissance mission is a mission for gathering information, a spy mission if used to find out about one’s enemy.
