We understand from the passage that the development of aircraft as a weapon of war was so rapid that at the start of World War I .
The first flight by a power driven manned aeroplane took
place in 1903 and its subsequent development as a
military weapon was so rapid that all the belligerents
entered World War I totally unprepared to defend
themselves against it. The first bombing raids, however,
compelled the consideration of anti-aircraft measures,
and Britain, in particular, attacked by Zeppelin airships
and Gotha aircraft was forced to develop a range of
specialized anti-aircraft equipment which came to include
guns, searchlights, sound-locators and predictors, giving
it a qualitative ascendancy in this field retained until the
end of World War II. Indeed the first night attack on
London caused such public consternation that its gun
defences had to be doubled within forty-eight hours and,
though they hit few planes, their presence was of great
psychological value.
