Hello,

The most dangerous ships during World War I were large metal-armored battleships called dreadnoughts. These ships had powerful long-range guns, allowing them to attack other ships and land targets from a long distance. The main naval battle in World War I was the Battle of Jutland. Besides this battle, Allied naval ships were used to blockade Germany to prevent supplies and food from reaching the country.

World War I also introduced submarines as a naval weapon in warfare. Germany used submarines to sneak up on ships and sink them with torpedoes. They even attacked Allied passenger ships such as the Lusitania.

Hope this helps!!!! :)

World war I was also the first modern one in many ways. It encompassed the earth, the sea and the air, in a multiple collaboration, focused on a unique result. At the service of the design, construction and production of armaments, technological advances, industrial capacity, developed transport systems (especially rail) and novel communications. Although bayonets, horses and even carrier pigeons were still present, the technical and strategic bases for later conflicts were laid.
