The Sopwith Pup, a British single-seater biplane fighter, is renowned for its role during World War I. Manufactured by the Sopwith Aviation Company, it first took to the skies in 1916. Despite its nickname 'Pup,' officially, it was never named as such, but the moniker stuck due to its endearing qualities and smaller size compared to its predecessor, the Sopwith 1½ Strutter. The Pup was celebrated for its exceptional maneuverability and ease of control, making it a favorite among pilots. It served primarily with the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Naval Air Service, proving to be a formidable adversary against enemy aircraft. The Pup was instrumental in achieving air superiority for the Allies in 1916 and 1917, participating in numerous dogfights and reconnaissance missions. Its legacy is marked by its contribution to aerial combat tactics and as a stepping stone to more advanced fighters.
