Luftwaffe
The {{Audio|De-Luftwaffe-pronunciation.ogg|Luftwaffe}} (German: "air force", IPA: ) is the commonly used term for the German air force. The history of the Luftwaffe began in 1910 with the founding of the Imperial German Army Air Service (Luftstreitkräfte), yet it has not been continuous, owing to the fact that Germany lost both World Wars (1914-1918 and 1939-1945). As a result, the Germans had no military air force between 1918 and 1935 and again between 1945 and 1955.
