The Gotha G.I was a heavy bomber used by Germany during WWI. It was first flown in 1915. The purpose of this particular design ( the 2 engines under the main body ) was to reduce the drag and increase the speed. The main problem of this aircraft was its poor maneuvrability, it was an easy target for any enemy fighter. I hope you will enjoy it and tell me if you want to see more WWI aircraft :)
