After reading the "What Killed MvR?" thread, I began wondering about just what anti-aircraft weaponry consisted of during WWI. I know there was always intense rifle fire from the trenches, of course, but were there actual units whose mission was dedicated soley to anti-aircraft defense? Did the weaponry consist only of machine guns or were there heavier artillery pieces used to lay out flak as in WWII.

Thanks for any input.
