This book investigates the deployment of British naval aviation — including aeroplanes, seaplanes, airships, and kite balloons — to counter German U‑Boat threats during the First World War. It analyzes the technology, training, and production of aircraft, and offers a detailed account of operations such as bombing U‑boat bases, coastal patrols, and convoy escorting. By reviewing both British and German sources, the author argues that aerial anti‑submarine efforts played a significant strategic role in mitigating the U‑Boat menace, even though aircraft alone destroyed only one submarine during the war.
