A new modification of the Gotha yielded the Gotha G.V. The first planes reached the Bogohl-3 in August of the next year. The main difference between the G.V and its predecessor was the engine installation in the small streamlined nacelles between the wings. Also the fuel tanks were moved into the fuselage. But performance had not increased; to the contrary, maximum speed and climb were slightly reduced and take-off weight increased. In any case, all these problems had been compensated for by an increased safety during landing. Soon after the Armistice, all "Night Bombers", including the Gotha G.V, were destroyed in accordance with the terms of the Versailles Treaty.
