Historical context of the Nieuport 10

The Nieuport 10 was one of the most versatile French aircraft of the Great War period. Designed by Gustave Delage, its initial version served as a reconnaissance aircraft, but it was quickly adapted for use as a fighter as well. France started using the Nieuport 10 intensively as early as 1915; the aircraft was also adopted by the air forces of Great Britain, Russia, and Italy. Developed and produced until the end of 1917, it contributed to the development of aerial combat tactics and reconnaissance on the Western Front and other theaters of war.
