Taube| German military aircraft of World War I. At the outbreak of war it was the principal aircraft of the German Army and performed useful service as a scout, notably in the detection of Russian movements which resulted in Hindenburg's victory at the Battle of Tannenberg in 1914. |
| It was also used to bomb Paris, though this appears to have been with nothing larger than hand grenades and did little damage. Soon outclassed as a fighting machine, it was adopted as the basic training aircraft and several hundred were built by most German aircraft companies. |
