The Sopwith Pup, a name that belies its ferocious spirit, soared into the skies during World War I as a fighter aircraft that captured the imagination and respect of pilots and adversaries alike. Operational from 1916, this nimble biplane was celebrated for its exceptional maneuverability and ease of control, making it a beloved mount among aviators. Serving primarily with the British Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Naval Air Service, the Pup was a key player in establishing air superiority over the Western Front. Despite its modest armament, typically a single .303 Vickers machine gun, its agility made it a formidable opponent in dogfights. The Pup also had the distinction of being one of the first aircraft to land on a moving ship, paving the way for modern aircraft carrier operations. Its legacy is not just of a machine of war, but as a pioneer of the skies, earning it a revered place in aviation history.
