Interesting how the previous war’s marginal weapon often becomes the next war’s main weapon. Weapons that evolved this way: tanks, missiles (starting with V2s), drones. Weapons that went straight to center-stage: aircraft (unless you count balloons), aircraft carriers, nukes.

They were primitive but not marginal. Sopwiths and fokkers were used in vast quantities. Not effective enough to change doctrine but effective enough to shape the course of events.
