Gotha G.I Description

The Gotha Ursinus G.U.H G.I bomber, later known as the Gotha G.I, was the first of a series of twin-engine medium bombers. Gothaer Waggonfabrik AG produced in the First World War. A prototype of this biplane of unusual design, the fuselage was attached to the upper wing and engines with a landing gear to the lower wing, first took off in January 1915. It was created by modifying the seaplane. designer Oscar Ursinus, which is why this unusual arrangement may be.

At takeoff and landing, the position of the fuselage at high altitude was more of a handicap. Highly ranked printed increased the ability of the aircraft to tip over. The engines were placed as close as possible to each other, and their propeller circuits were almost to avoid large thrust asymmetries even with single-engine problems.
Even if & # 382; Prototype tests showed some shortcomings A contract was signed for the supply of bombers. for the army. The first serial machine was, after some modifications, completed on July 27, 1915. By the end of the year, about 20 aircraft were produced.
